Soil Step ups

18 years ago

OK, as I understand it...soiless potting mix or starting mix to START.

Seeds germinate

Second set of true leaves appear

Transplant to next container size (or styrofoam cup etc)

****here's the question******

Do you transplant into a different soil at this point? Like potting soil? or can you still use the grow mix (I"m using jungle growth "professional" grow mix with fertilizer in it). I dont remember the exact #'s but they were very low. And at this point or soon after, I'm using a 1/4 strength miracle grow fertilizer once a week or every 10 days approximately (I guess that becomes a question too, how frequently do you need to do the 1/4 strength liquid fert?

And after I transplant to the next container, they would grow some and then go into their permanent homes/pots/garden etc.

Just was never sure about this...thanks for your help :)
