You need to be thinking where you'll put any plants you get early from
your propagator. It's a bit early for most things yet. The main
benefit of your propagator is in prolonging the season.
I have a big home made propagator that I can keep plants in until
they're quite big.
The sort of things I do is onions, as said, tomatoes, peppers, french&
runner beans. You can gain three weeks or so. But you have to have it
planned so that stuff can go to the greenhouse (with heating?) after
the propagator.
If you have no greenhouse, you will be that much later.
You can make a bit of money selling surplus plants too.
Don't forget, stuff needs "hardening off".
