This is my first time winter sowing. I’m in the Historic Triangle in Southeast Virginia, zone 8b. I am trying a full spectrum of brassicas, leeks, onions, beets, turnips, parsnips, radishes, peas, spinach, herbs, & lettuce. As for natives, I’m trying milkweed, amaranth, echinacea, rudbeckia, & sunflowers. I’ve heard some YouTube creators suggest even winter sowing bell & hot peppers! I think I’ll probably try a few, but I’ll be starting peppers, eggplants, & tomatoes inside this week regardless. Very excited to see sprouts in the jugs I started 2 weeks ago!

I've left my seeds outside in a glass jar for at least a month, and now I'm not sure they will be any good for winter sowing. Lettuce seed, even?
