    I started my rosemary seeds February 1st in one inch-ish cells. I think I up-potted them into these 3.5" pots around March 1st. This picture was taken 3/22 and they have enough roots I could probably up-pot them again. They are doing great! I'm not sure how many seeds I put in each cell - it was however many seeds came in the packet divided by 6 cells. I know I had a couple cells with two plants and one cell with zero (hence only having 5 plants). I thought about trying divide the doubles, but decided I'd rather have 5 healthy plants than risk damaging the ones I was trying separate. I can't wait for it to warm up enough to put them outside.

    Being aware that rosemary has...poor/difficult germination rate, I dumped the whole packet onto this 4in epic 4 cell, and got some germination. Overall pleased, got enough rosemary plants for myself 😊

    My rosemary did not grow at all. I’ve had success with your other seeds but not Rosemary
