Photo of germination - now what?

This is my first year and I'm trying to get the hang of handling these babies. It's so different than just plunking out store-bought plants.

Here's my first bed of sweet peas, clarkia, foxglove, poppies, five spot, and pyrethrum. The first pic is on March 10 when first planted out. I fertilized with 1/4 strength MG each week. I covered this bed with a sheet during the freezes in April.

The second pic is April 10. I'm going to have to really restrain myself when choosing how many plants to go in a bed. They looked so small when I planted them, but now I'm probably going to have to do some thinning.
