I've just got my second packet of wild flower seed through. ![Cool Cool](https://gardenandgossip.org/images/smilies/cool.png)
The first packet I sowed in a 'plug' tray but only half a dozen germinated and I am not even sure if these are weed seeds that somehow got into compost.![Confused Confused](https://gardenandgossip.org/images/smilies/confused.png)
The second packet is much bigger (20 grammes) and lots of black shiney seeds which other didn't have. I will sow these in a plug tray once I have transplanted the few that have germinated previously.
These seeds seem bigger so instead of broadcasting over the surface of the tray I will put a pinch in a dimple formed in each plug and cover with a tiny amount of compost. Hopefully this will give me better germination.![Blush Blush](https://gardenandgossip.org/images/smilies/blush.png)
As these are wild flowers I think I may keep the plug tray outdoors rather than in the greenhouse.
