23 September... OK, I just got some seeds started, the darker brown patches you can see in the pic is where the seeds are a bit too concentrated, I have an abundance of seed, so went a bit silly, just grabbed a handful and sprinkled them all over the tray.. Will keep you updated...

When sowing fine seed it pays to mix it with some dry sand you will get a more even distribution. ;D ;D I also used to have a cheap plastic pepper shaker in my glasshouse it was ideal for sowing Lobelia seed. ;D

7 days on, I think the brown patch got a little too much sun/heat in the new "Whitehouse"... Obviously I've sewn farrrrrrrrr too many seeds, only expect a fraction of these seedling to turn into plants, this is about how many seeds I could send you for $15...
