I started my rosemary seeds February 1st in one inch-ish cells. I think I up-potted them into these 3.5" pots around March 1st. This picture was taken 3/22 and they have enough roots I could probably up-pot them again. They are doing great! I'm not sure how many seeds I put in each cell - it was however many seeds came in the packet divided by 6 cells. I know I had a couple cells with two plants and one cell with zero (hence only having 5 plants). I thought about trying divide the doubles, but decided I'd rather have 5 healthy plants than risk damaging the ones I was trying separate. I can't wait for it to warm up enough to put them outside.

My rosemary did not grow at all. I’ve had success with your other seeds but not Rosemary

Being aware that rosemary has...poor/difficult germination rate, I dumped the whole packet onto this 4in epic 4 cell, and got some germination. Overall pleased, got enough rosemary plants for myself 😊
