    If you are interested in last year's string:
    http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/1078075/

    I'm ready to start again with seeds: four new varieties to try. I learned a few things from everyone last year, and will do some things differently. One big thing I learned was how to nick the seeds using nail clippers - I was holding them wrong before.

    I have flats of Scotts seed starting mix ready and labeled, and plan to nick and soak the seeds later today.

    Anyone else want to try this year?

    Attached is a picture of three seedling plants (grown together as a clump) from last year's attempt. By the end of the season it was taller than I am. The hummingbird really liked it.
