Flower seedlings sprouting

Tuesday, 10 Apr 12 Cloudy 21°C / 70°F

The shower is very full at the moment, three and a half flats of mostly flower seeds. This is the first year I’ve had a flower garden, and it does in fact add to the overall work for the garden – who knew?

Also, sowing seeds more thickly than suggested is really the way to go. The last seed flats were sown with the suggested thicknesses as an experiment, and really didn’t yield enough plants.
