I followed Wayne's lead with the solo cups. Five of the six tobaccos have sprouted. The Connecticut Shade did nothing and the Burley only has a few sprouts. I avoided the peat pellets, but at some point I thought to look at the bag of seeding mix and found out it is peat. Tonight I put just potting soil in a couple of cups and started more Connecticut Shade and Burley. Tried pics but for some reason me, digital cameras and flash can't get along. If I think of it I'll see what I can do in daylight.
