Re: Germinating seeds?

Barbara:

Regarding the "hundred seedlings grouped together" -  I have  a solution to
this problem - not one that will help this time, but will prevent it
happening the next time.     I have it in "hard copy" which I prepared for
someone recently, and I'll be happy to mail you a copy if you want to give
me a mailing address.  I don't have it on disk, and it's a bit long to have
to put it in via the keyboard again.
