three seed starting tips for beginners start your seeds in a nice fluffy well- draining medium potting mix can contain coarser material that can sometimes make it difficult for seedlings to root and grow they can also hold on to too much water for young plants seed starting mixes whether store bought or ones you make yourself have a much finer texture and often better moisture control the number one reason seeds fail to germinate is that they dry out moisture is crucial for germination you can add a humidity Dome lay down a fine layer of vermiculite or set a daily reminder to check and make sure the seed starting mix isn’t drying out if seedlings don’t get enough light they can become stretched or leggy this makes them very weak and they may not transplant well grow lights are nice but you can seed start without them a sunny south facing window can work for things like herbs or leafy greens or when your daytime temperatures are warm enough you can set seedlings outdoors and then bring them back inside at night just be sure to place them somewhere protected from strong winds or heavy rains
