sowing seeds part 1

9 years ago

Hi every one there has been a lot of discussion about how to sow seeds here is the way i do it through trial and error it may help or you can take it and modified it to suit you so here we go it is a bit long winded hang in

first is good quality fresh seeds from a trusted supplier

soak seeds for 1 / 2 hours

i buy these trays from the local hardware shop (Bunnings) $10 each
i than drill 8mm holes through one tray (the one that will be the top one
i stick 5mm spacers to the bottom tray to allow water to drain
place the one with holes in it into the drip tray
cover the holes in the top tray with course coco coir press it down
get the boss to check it
mix up equal parts fine coco coir, succulent mix,& fine perlite coat the coarse coco coir with the seeling mix
