Hello Kathleen If you floated them, I leave them in the water until they have a green shoot about 1inch long (2.5cms). They seem quite happy that way, and are much easier to handle.

What a nice surprise, coming on a snowy day here. Now I get to go out in the snow to the garden shed, assemble a pot of soil, let it warm up for a while, and plant the seeds. Air temperatures outside are hovering around 33 F, so the snow is barely sticking here near sea level. With a bit of luck, there will be nothing to shovel later. > > Cheers, > Kathleen > > Kathleen Sayce > PNW Coast, WHZ 8, dryish cool summers& mild wet winters > > > > _______________________________________________ > pbs mailing list > pbs@lists.ibiblio.org > http://pacificbulbsociety.org/list.php > http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/ >
