Each product is designed to support your seeds at different stages of their development.
Choose seed trays or pots based on the size and type of seeds you are planting:
Vermiculite is a lightweight, sterile soil amendment that helps improve soil aeration and moisture retention.
Mix it into your potting soil to promote faster root growth and to help maintain consistent moisture levels around the seeds. It's especially useful for seeds that need moist conditions to germinate.
Grow Lights: Use these when natural light is not sufficient, particularly during the winter months or in shaded indoor areas. They provide the spectrum of light needed for seedlings to grow strong and healthy.
Heat Mats: Ideal for providing consistent bottom heat to seeds that require warm soil temperatures to germinate, such as tomatoes and peppers. Place the heat mat under your seed trays to speed up germination.
Soil: Use a fine-textured, sterile potting mix to avoid disease issues.
Water: Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Covering seed trays with a clear lid or plastic wrap can help retain moisture.
Temperature: Maintain a consistent temperature suitable for the specific seeds you are sowing, using a heat mat if necessary.
Light: Provide sufficient light immediately after germination, using grow lights if natural sunlight is inadequate.
Yes, our sowing supplies like seed trays and pots can be reused if they are cleaned between uses to prevent disease spread.
Wash them with water, no solutions needed.
