I have tried and the plants are still just1/2 inch tall. If someone has had better luck please let me in to your secret. Thank you!

    Are they getting a lot of sun? They are definitely sun-loving plants. Now that they have sprouted give them food. You may also want to take some clear plastic cups, cut the bottoms off, and put a cup around each sprout like a protective collar.

    The Miracle Grow soil has extended release fertilizer in it and also has a good mix of soil, peat and other amendments. Other soils don't look as rich. I always amend other potting soils until they look richer and less just dirt.
