Neefer,

Are you winter sowing green peppers? You must be in a fairly warm climate. I’m jealous. :)

I have to start my ‘maters and peppers indoors here in MN. I’m eyeballing all of the perennial seed I collected last year though. I think most of them would be great candidates for the WS route.

No, I wish. Started peppers indoors. Also over wintering some hot peppers from last season. I don't transplant peppers and tomatoes until first of June.

I did winter sow some tomato seeds. Folks on GW swear they catch up and then surpass indoor transplants. But I'm not willing to try all of my tomatoes that way. I participated in a tomato seed exchange with Canadians and have used many of those seeds for a winter sowing experiment since many are early, cold tolerant varieties. Most of the winter sown stuff are annual flowers.

I have plenty of tomato seeds left. If you want to try winter sowing tomatoes, email me your address and I can send you some seeds.

That pic of your flower bed is lovely. My flower beds get less attention now that I'm growing more veggies.
