It’s the Basics Baby!
From time to time I am asked starting tips and I promise it’s simple BUT you can’t cheat.
Light
Moisture
Enough soil and room to grow
A good hardening off period!
This is my little experiment to show you what I mean! Both these plants were sown at the same time, in the same tray, from the same seed packet. The big one has received perfect lighting, moisture, and was moved to bigger blocks as soon as he needed it. The small one started with all those things but when the big one was transplanted to a bigger block he stayed in the same. He then got inconsistent moisture and not enough light! Each plant is exactly a month old. This is the difference after 2 weeks. Below are some trouble shooting tips I use to solve the question of what might be happening what my seedlings don’t seem quite right!
