11. Well, the seeds are about 3/8 of an inch, and I'm hoping for
plants eight feet tall. That seems to be about 256 times
growth, plus or minus four tenths (.0004).

garden fun.

13. I think I'll be able to put them outside in about two weeks.
We'll start a mutual jealousy society.

I envy your location and vocation.

I can't wait to see the outcome. I'm feeling the itch to plant around this time of year too.

18. I'm going to try some smaller sunflowers in containers this year--
Gedera Sunshot, Double Dandy. Elf, Chianti, and Sunny Hybrid. I'm hoping I'll have some luck. I need to start those seeds soon, I guess.

You need to cross-post these threads over in the "Gardening Group." It could use a little action over there . . . .

Good luck--I'm anxious to see how you do!
