Good learning lesson for all of KT. I am glad it did not get out of hand like some posts do. It is amazing how different a situation turns out when adults do talk it out and find out all the details. It is so easy to ""text"" stuff, but so hard to really find out what is the truth.

no sprouts in petunia containers

I think in London you'll see petunia sprouts soon, Daisy - but haven't you had a bit colder than normal winter there? My petunias usually start sprouting in April, and I think it's actually mid-April, and I'm a z6. When do your roses begin blooming there - isn't it May? I think you are about a month ahead of our weather, so I would expect you'll see petunias soon.

well growjo, I am glad that I could help you out with your wish to grow gerberas! :-) even though it was accidental. I guess I learned a lesson, not to share seeds that have been shared with me unless I can be certain that they are what they are said to be. I know it was accidental, but when we are handling so many seeds, things can happen, and since I was unfamiliar with what those seeds looked like, then I had no way of knowing. I will be happy to have them too! gg

So far I've started from seed...

I usually start all my seeds in fine vermiculite and so far all my wave and tidal wave petunias are up so I transplanted from 9 cell packs to 6 cell packs last nite. I also started Foxy Foxgloves and I transplanted 36 into 6 cell packs as well. I'm still waiting for my Datura seeds to germinated but it's only been 2 weeks for them and they usualy take 3-4 weeks. This year I bought another heated seed starting kit that comes with the 72 peat pellets and I planted two Datura seeds in each peat pellet. I cheque them daily and last nite when I took the cover off there was quite a smell. I also have a margarine container lined with a coffee filter with another 50 Datura seeds in it that I set on top of a fluorescent lite for warmth but nothing has sprouted yet. It's strange for me with Datura seeds because one year I'll have a lot germinate and other years hardly anything. The seed I have is fresh from my sister in law so it is not old. I think I'll back up my current efforts by planting another 60 seeds in Vermiculite in another heated seed starting kit. Stan

I read all the sugar cookie recipes for one with stiffly beaten egg whites. I will see if I missed one maybe in the drop cookies. OK, I found ONE drop cookie recipe with beaten egg whites. Hope this is it. WILLIAMSBURG COOKIES (a chewy cookie) contributed by Mollie Keller Favorite Recipes of Home Economics Teachers I egg white 1 c dark brown sugar 1/8 tsp salt 1 Tablespoon flour 1 c chopped walnuts or pecans Beat egg white stiff. Gradually add brown sugar and salt. Dust nuts with flour and stir into egg and sugar mixture. Drop on greased cookie sheets by spoonfuls far apart. Bake at 275 degrees about 15 minutes. Remove from sheet when partially cooked. If cookies stick, return to oven for a moment then remove. Makes 2 dozen. Is this is???? This post was edited by sheilajoyce on Tue, Mar 11, 14 at 11:57
