You might plant 3 seeds at a time just in case one or two don't sprout but if they all sprout you could use the other two in another location.
All the snow in our front yard has melted and most of it in our backyard., it's amazing how much has melted in the past week.
Do you usually start collecting water in April? I know it all depends on when it stops freezing, so I think I'll wait another week or so and see if the temps stay above freezing before I start collecting water.
They are bunching onions as no room for larger ones, so I've learned on them that's for sure. Some I replanted and they have sprouted as well as some original seeds as well. So we'll see just how long it'll take and how they do.
Typically, about April 15 we can put our collectors out. We still risk frosts but they are not hard frosts to cause damages by then.
Yesterday's ph was still at a 6.25.
