    Never done the crocosmia New boy, but the peppers need warmth to germinate and can take a while to get going. I shall be starting mine off in a heated propagator at the end of Jan.

    Bob is the expert with peppers, got some good advice from him last year?, hope he spots your post.

    I raise all my seeds in the conservatory too, plenty of light image

  • Are you sure you need to grow crocosmia from seed?

    It usually bulks up fast enough on its own - many people treat it as a weed! - and it is easy to split if you need more clumps.

    I would save the space and time for something more preciousimage
