I want to have some geraniums in my greenhouse this coming summer and from what I have read I know I must start them from seed about this time of year. Has anyone done this before, do you have any tips to share?

I have not from seed, I want too, so this is a great post;-) I do however keep me and cut them down and put in the basement and they come back again in spring;-)

I've never startd any Geraniums from seed, but I do have some started from cutting. They are doing quite well at the moment, but I will have to see what happens to them as time passes. [dunno] I'm hoping they will be a decent size by the time spring arrives. [Wink]

My geraniums are all up and growing well. Planted 20 seeds and all 20 are growing.
I started mine on the 14th and they too were up in 3 days.

I started a bunch from seed last year, it was pretty late in the year too...I think around April, and I was so proud of them because they were so easy to grow and I didn't spend a ton buying them. Trying to overwinter them in the basement! [thumb]
