Seeds Sown for Indoor Growing (Jan 3rd-5th)

Every year my seed starting gets earlier, I just can't help myself! This year I'm trying something new to scratch that itch. I will be starting most of these seeds for indoor growing, I don't know why I haven't tried this before, I have a great set up that, unless it gets too crowded, it should work great!

All of the seeds below (except onions, herbs and ginger) were started to be grown and harvested indoors only, I won't be transplanting these to the garden. Started between January 3rd-5th.

Any of the seeds that I started with a heat mat and under a dome were also put under fluorescents (these lights give off a lot of heat). My plan is to transfer them all to grow under LEDs once germinated. 

These have all been started in peat/seed starting mix, and topped with vermiculite.
