I planted what seemed like hundreds of seeds last November. And seedlings did pop up. But they were clumped together and I learned that you need to space seeds out. Crowding causes weaker plants. So they never got above maybe 6" tall. Those seedlings may surprise me next year, but I planted new seeds in new areas and planted so far maybe 20 seeds. I did throw a bunch into the woods and let loose many parachutes to carry the seeds to parts unknown. I have more seeds that I will try to plant but the theme is plant less and try to get a few strong plants for next year.
Here are my four areas so far. Just loosened the dirt and planted maybe 6" apart.
Not much to see here. I have marked with a golf tee. This is the area behind my back fence but this year moving more into the woods so my neighbor doesn't trample when he comes through.
