Perhaps you could try starting out the seeds in pots with good quality potting mix. As a rule I always sow 3 times as many seeds as I need for my own use. You get to pick out the strongest for yourself; some may fail, and you can give others away whilst comparing ideas with other local gardeners. Hope this helps.
