Sowed some tropicals

We had two inches of snow today by noon. Rain turned it to slush by 4 pm, and 2 hours of sun melted it all away by 6 pm. Didn't stop me from sowing my heat loving tropicals.

Sowed two 2" pots each of:
- Eggplant Twinkle Hybrid (Solanum melongena)
- Peppers (Capsicum annum)
Early Jalapeno (hot)
Miniature Chocolate Bell (sweet mini)
California Wonder 300 (sweet)
Italian Pepperoncini (fancy sweet)

The annual collared dahlias sown a month ago have outgrown their 4" pots. Each soil mass was lightly tapped out of the pot and the plants gently separated from one another, with extra care taken to avoid any damage to the root system of each seedling. I filled about sixteen 2" pots with either one big seedling or two smaller seedlings. Seeing as it did snow today, it may have been too early for them to be outside, even in my cold frame. We'll see how they do.
