What would you do if one of those seeds grew into a stunning bloom?

That I do not know Moonlight I would speak to John regarding that whatever he wanted I would go along with. Which is the only reasonable thing you can do. All hypothetical let's see if they germinate first and I don't kill them as seedlings ! Hehehe no coir pellets going near them !

The 5th hard to tell due to the vermiculite on top. For sure 4 bits of green popping through.

Just had a pom seed stick its head out of the compost, not had pom seed before last year. Could have something to do with only having one variety of pom in the past.

I sowed half the packet of pom pom seed I bought on Wednesday, just now. Have put them in my peat and Arthur Bowers mix with vermiculite. It's what I start most of my seeds off in.

Have placed pot in a loose poly bag. Let me know, oh knowledgeable ones, if this is wrong.

Thank you kindly.

Oh...how big should they be before pricking out Tel ?

If i think they are large enough to handle by a seedling leaf i prick mine out into 3in pots. I find because they are sown close together in seed trays the longer i leave them the more tangled the roots become.
