Doing some for the first time later this year. Looks like you used ordinary pots? Been saving my toilet rolls as thought the training pots were a bit overpriced 🤔

Good luck, I use toilet rolls, works well and I seem to have better success when I soak the seeds first 😆

My Sweet Peas are all the same size as yours and they were potted about 3 weeks ago. I didn't soak them either as the instructions didn't say to. They have all germinated so I am looking forward to having lots of them around the garden!

Yes. The ones I will plant are going to be in sheltered places and I will keep the others back in the greenhouse over winter. I do hope they survive ok too.
