Luis on Oct 04, 2013Since you are in MA I assumed you starting them indoors: Containers - Either purchased pots or flats or containers you've saved, like egg cartons and yogurt cups. Used pots should be cleaned and disinfected by soaking in 1 part bleach to 10 parts water. Potting Mix - Seeds do best in a soilless mix where there are fewer inherent problems than with garden soil Seeds - Your choice Labels/markers - Trust me, you won't remember what's what Plastic Bags or Covers - These will trap warmth and humidity where the seeds need it Water Light Source - If you don't have a bright window, you will need some kind of florescent or high density plant lightHelpful Reply

Louise Biernesser on Oct 06, 2013you could use peat pots or any type of container (be sure to punch holes in the bottom. I've had trouble using egg cartons as they seem to shallow. Since I grow most everything from seed in my hobby greenhouse, I use Parks biodome seed starting stuff - expensive but now I just have to buy their plugs. Most seeds don't really need light to germinate (google as there are always exceptions) but they do need warmth - use the top of your frig or a heating mat.Helpful Reply

Judy on Oct 06, 2013You're not giving us enough information to help you. What kind of seeds are you wanting to plant? Where are you planting them? In the garden, in pots, in flats? Outdoors, indoors, in a greenhouse? If you're using a commercial potting soil why would you want to add anything to it?Helpful Reply

Arlene Buono on Oct 06, 2013I took seeds out of the fresh lemons and they said to put it in soil, but I didn't know if they added anything to it, and I wasn't sure what to do, but thanksHelpful Reply
