            Starting Seeds Indoors
 Tips and Tricks for Starting Seeds Successfully


Starting seeds properly can make or break your entire growing season! Here are our best tips and tricks for starting seeds indoors.

Before You Start Seeds

Be seed savvy. Obtain seed catalogs from several companies if you order online and compare their offerings. Your local Ace Hardware has the seed types that are specific for the area they are sold in so you are assured that they are the correct ones.

Make a list of what you’d like to grow. A good rule-of-thumb is to imagine your garden one-quarter the size that it really is. This allows for good spacing practices!

Prepare for some losses. Though it’s good not to plant too much for your garden space, it’s also good to assume that some of your seeds won’t germinate, or that they will inexplicably die off later. Plant a few extra, just in case.

Team up with a neighbor and share seeds if you have leftovers!

Don’t start your seeds too early, especially tomatoes. Most annual flowers and vegetables should be sown indoors about 6 weeks before the last frost in your area. See our Best Planting Dates for Seeds chart so you get the timing right.

You may have to soak, scratch, or chill seeds before planting, as directed on packet.

Use clean containers. There are seedling flats, peat pots, and other growing containers, but egg carton compartments make good containers, too. Be sure to poke holes in the sides near the bottom of the containers you use in order to allow excess water to drain.

Label your containers now! There’s nothing more frustrating than forgetting what you planted.
