I did WS a couple of years ago and planted about 25 different seeds. Most things came up fine. I just transplanted the clumps into the garden.

This year I've planted 36 different perennials in gallon milk jugs. I have an unheated greenhouse. So I haven't taped the jugs but just pushed the top part back into the bottom. Since I left a "hinge" under the handle, they're all a little slanted. But I've set them all together in the same orientation so they wouldn't look too messy. They're on the floor where it's coldest and may need more watering because, of course, they won't get rain or snow inside. I'm hoping to transplant into individual pots as they come up. Want lots of inexpensive perennials for a neighborhood entrance garden that I maintain.
