Anyone start seeds yet?

I have! Under the lights are daylily seedlings, downy sage, verbena rigida, lavender stock, blue abutilon, roseroot and echinacea. Outside for winter sowing are two different delphiniums, viola, asclepias, primrose, and foxglove. Hurry spring!

    I just ordered my seeds today and I'm in the process of planning out my new garden.

    I've had gardens in the past, but the wife and I just bought a house, so I'll be starting from scratch... for better or for worse.

    It sounds like you're really prepared for spring... it's so close, especially with forecasts for some days to hit 60 next week!

    Petunias, impatiens and coleus are underway. Zinnias and marigolds are next in about 10 days.

    Me!

    I've got under lights onions, cauliflower, hot chilis and snapdragons. Sweet peppers just sprouted today and today I also planted 4 types of lettuce. Can't wait for spring!

    Sounds like you are all off and running. Keriann, what's in the bigger pots to the back? Now I've started gaillardia, portulaca, agastache, talinum, celosia, petunias, rudbeckia, angelonia, melissa and impatiens. I've tried to tweak when to start seeds with a calendar and how happy I am when I set them out. If they are too small I move them ahead for the next year a couple of weeks, too huge and they go back.

    I'm starting my tomato seeds today. Will probably get to the peppers sometime this week. I got a mini greenhouse for xmas so I'm very excited to see how it works for seed starting.

    I started the tomatoes today. The cole crops were started last week. Also started last week, some Salvia greggii, Lychnis, Amaryllis and rudbeckia.
    Keriann, I hope that we have an early spring or you will be having home grown tomatoes right out of your house. Your plants look great.

    Tomatoes (five kinds), Eggplant, Peppers (sweet & hot) Brussel Sprouts, Broccoli, Parsley, Lettuce (mixed leaf & baby romaine), Spinach, Echinacia, Bachelor Buttons, Lychnis, Zinnia, Asters, Alyssum, Lobelia, Cilantro, Basil (Genovese, Licorice, Amethyst), Russian Tarragon, and Mint, all under lights. Plus a buch of winter sowed seeds that I am not remembering right now and sure cant read the labels under all the snow!

    About 2/3 of the indoor seeds have sprouted in the last week and are looking good. the rest I am still looking for. I'm waiting til mid April to start most of the rest. Hoping I can turn my raised beds into cold frames and put out the cold weather veg then, so I will have more room under the lights.

    I setup my xmas present - a mini greenhouse - and started my tomato seeds today. I'm hoping starting the seeds today is still early enough to have decent sized plants by mid/late May for planting in the ground.
