I'm generally a frugal person, but seed ordering is my exception to the rule. It's the only time I won't balk at paying $5+ shipping for a $10-$15 order. Since I ordered from 3 different companies almost a 3rd of my seed cost went to shipping fees. Don't care though, I just want to start growing again!adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09886352800474264548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255881587336767342.post-24325113787885219102013-03-14T20:19:51.214-04:002013-03-14T20:19:51.214-04:00Yey for the 2013 season!

Having a heat source helps, top of the fridge, near a heat vent, that kind of thing, water and warmth basically.adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09886352800474264548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255881587336767342.post-7528233633145377702013-03-14T17:00:09.078-04:002013-03-14T17:00:09.078-04:00So I started all of my seeds a few weeks ago, incl...So I started all of my seeds a few weeks ago, including the seeds you generously share with me. And none of the pepper seeds (I think there were two kinds in what you sent plus one more I purchased from Baker Creek) have germinated. They are in peet pots- two different trays. And not a single one shows any signs of growth. Just about everything else is growing though. Do you think this is user error or is this common? I've googled and found every answer under the sun. But I can't imagine three varieties of seeds were all bad. I'm curious to find tips on what I did wrong.<br /><br />Thanks!<br />KKPreppy Pink Crocodilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01396889798988617272noreply@blogger.com
