I hope you have good luck with yours.

Thank you Mac, I had a paper egg carton that I just recycled and I was kicking myself for doing it, but as it turns out, I'll be using more than 12 seeds -- this should be a stitch. That's fantastic that you produced those seedlings from bird feed. I'm going to hang a sunflower seed bird feeder as soon as it arrives, and five will get you ten that none of the sunflowers I started will come up, but a couple that were sown by clumsy birds will!
