Seedling update

I have some different seedling I started this year to challenge my skills with germination.


These are Artichoke seedling which I thought I would take a stab at to experiment with.
Overall I had a 80% germination rate. I Threw the seeds in the fridge for two weeks to trick them and seemed to work. 

Here you have some Orange Cosmos Growing from seed, which in the fall I five finger discounted from a neighbor. Never would know the seed heads were missing, and in my greedy paws.
In the back tray are some snake gourds which are the easiest to get started. 
Or any other gourd as I have found. 

    
These are birdhouse gourds growing. I must have hundreds of these seeds. so far I already made some birdhouses and shipped them out to family members.
Still have plenty more. I will post Pics soon with the knew ones I am working on.

Here I have my new Cat that likes to pic on all the other cats in my area.
Dubbed "Bully Boy" 

Like a dog can smell you,
You may run from sorrow as we have,
Sorrow will find you,
It can smell You.
