Wow, Mike, that is impressive first year growth. I am two zones farther
south and only got that kind of size in the seedlings I pushed to
germinate in the preceeding fall.
Most of my crosses are late bloomers or rebloomers. I think Walter and
others have said that the early bloomers germinate first. So, maybe I
am not going to be able to get that kind of first year growth no matter
what I do.
However, your results sure do make me want to experiment more with my
seedlings to see if I can push them more that first season. Thanks for
posting the photos - picture is worth a thousand words.
