On April 1st. I planted 12 types of flowers - mostly poppies. Now I'm thinking that maybe I should have just sowed them outside later. I have them under grow lights and on a heat mat but I'm very new at this and feel that I should have chosen something else to start from seeds. I have 2 - 40 cell Park's Bio Domes and 1 - 50 cell Jiffy greenhouse tray. I'll sow lettuce, spinach and peas directly into the raised beds we are constructing today. They are 4 ' x 8'x 9 1/4" tall. We made 6 of them and will fence them in away from our 3 dogs, 2 cats and assorted wildlife.
