I'm finally starting my scion plants tonight (seeds in wet paper towels until I see them sprout) and then I'll probably start the rootstocks on Monday. Last year I actually started everything at once and it was okay, but I keep reading about people starting their rootstocks after the scion plants. What do folks find works best for them?

Planning to plant out around April 15-20 depending on forecasts.
