Yes, I enjoyed Ian's bulb logs. He finds that planting seed halfway down the pot produces more mature seedlings than sowing near the surface. He thinks that the plant doesn't have to waste time getting its bulb down where it needs to be. I haven't sown all of the seedex seeds yet, so I will experiment. -- Diane Whitehead Victoria, British Columbia, Canada maritime zone 8 cool mediterranean climate (dry summer, rainy winter - 68 cm annually) sandy soil
