Heated propogator

Bought myself a heated propogator - primarily so that the chillies - of which there will be 5 varieties this year (Scotch Bonnet, Krakatoa, Ring Of Fire, Superchilli and obviously, Jalapeno) could be started early as they took so long to get started last year that I think the growing season was too short.

But before they went in, I started some broad beans & sweet peas at the same time. Both took just over 1 week to show, and whilst the broad beans were good and strong, the sweet peas have put a lot of tall thin growth on - about 3 inches of thin stem before the first leaves show. I've put them inside the greenhouse to check them, but I think that a week in the propogator is as much as sweet peas should be left, then put them in the porch even if they haven't broken the surface yet.
