    Since I couldn't find a new thread for this years 'winter sowing' projects, I figured I'd start one.
    :-)

    My questions are:
    Have you done this before?
    Was the technique successful for you?
    What kinds of containers did you use and how did you prep them? (Where did you cut and how?)
    What kind of soil mix did you use...and would you use the same kind again?
    How many different kinds of seeds did you use?
    Did you experiment with something you didn't expect to work and have it surprise you by growing?
    If so, what was it?

    I'm really excited about winter sowing this year. It's the first time I've tried it and since I have limited seed starting space, I thought this might just be the answer to getting (hopefully) an over abundance of plants I wouldn't otherwise be able to afford.

    Tell me what you're doing and what you want to grow.
