The rest of the pinks in my grow out are first timers, like BW SUDDUTH, PINK GERMAN, PRUDENS PURPLE, and MOORTGAGE LIFTER second time. So I have 5 pink varieties.

Amazing !
My theory is that the seed must have had twin embryo in it. So then each contributed two cot leaves. This is different from two separate seeds being fused.

No, I have had this happen before in peppers and tomatoes and have never seen any difference. I start hundreds of seeds every year so I think it is just the law of averages. I will see 1 or 2 every year like this, but in every other way they seem no different than any other seedling. Still cool but I guess I'm used to it.

I dropped my first seeds last night: dwarfs, microdwarfs, compact determinates suitable for containers, and high tunnel candidates. I thought I was really holding back this year, but I counted about 40 varieties, and I haven't yet gotten to the ones that will go in the outdoor garden.
This year's seed-starting mix was my regular pro mix combined with extra perlite and some mycogrow, then a handful of Light Warrior, seeds on that after being saturated, then finally a layer of vermiculte, which is what shows in the pic. I sow densely and transplant quickly after sprouting. Just what is in the pic below should make a few hundred plants. They are incubating nicely right now under a 1000watt metal halide light.

I always feel left out in these threads because mine are always to fruit ripening stage when the rest of the country is starting seeds.

My first sprouts are up in 2.5 days. Spring has begun.
