Starting plants from seed saves money in the long run and is a highly rewarding way to begin your garden.
Many plants take longer to grow from seed than our growing season allows.
So they must be given a head start indoors. Growing plants from seed is not difficult, although it does require a fair bit of time and space. Try to provide as much light as possible for the young seedlings by placing the trays close to a south facing window. Warm the soil by placing the seedling tray on a heat register or on a heating cable. As soon as the seedlings emerge, they should be removed from the heat but remain in a bright, sunlit area.
