Temperature -- You wouldn't be trying to germ them outside, would you? I've attempted that before for fall crop, and it was just too hot. Seemed like a good idea at the time. The seeds basically sat outside in the brutally hot weather (95-105f) and rotted. Inside should be fine this time of year depending on what you keep your a/c set at.

Seed starting mix -- Are you using a good seed starting mix or just potting soil?

(PM me about the BBH and GG if you need a few more.)
