Hi Steve,

I forgot to ask you about your seeds while we were in the Chat Room last 
friday. I wanted to know why you were trying to germinate them so early? 
You probably mentioned why but for the life of me I cannot remember.

I plant my seeds in late fall because I have been told by numerous 
people that any earlier would cause some of them to germinate and 
seedlings that small would not make it through the winter. 

Are you planning to grow the seeds indoors? Or is your winter mild 
enough that you can plant them and have them survive the San Diego 
winters?
