Since I only want about 30 roots and the pack contains about 500 seeds, it seemed such a waste to throw away most of the packet. Just wondering if the seeds that have just germinated would produce strong seedlings/plants (Gladiator F1) or am I wasting my time.
Do you just drop them, newspaper and all, into the prepared hole?
Well, I have started them off in a mini propagator that came free with two apple turnovers. Hope it works as it will be a good excuse for more apple turnovers.
More details please!
I tend to sow in threes direct into the ground and I only fail once in a while. They really don't like being transplanted and I can be a clumsy oaf so I just sow direct, three to a station every couple of inches and then thin if any more than one germinates. It is still way too early for sowing direct if you want to get decent germination - normally leave mine till March.

Dont forget the drainage.....
