Broccoli started in paper towel

Decided to try growing broccoli again this year!  Tried it only once I think, quite a few years ago, with no success.  Oh wait -- thanks to the blog I see I also tried some in 2017, but they were late-season runts from Canadian Tire planted in July (which also didn't come to anything) -- so, doesn't really count.

Have been hesitant to grow it due to caterpillar issue, but will try covering it with row cover. 

So, started seeds in paper towel / bag today.  Might be a bit early, but being a cool-weather crop I figure might not hurt to give them a good head start.

(These are the "Waltham" seeds from the foil pack, which is now 3 years old)
