Starting Seeds & Caring for Seedlings

It will soon be time in most areas of the country when the danger of frost has passed, and it will be time to get seeds planted and seedlings transplanted.

Join this informative training on how to start your seedlings indoors so they’re ready to transplant at the right time, and how you can prepare them for the transition outdoors.

This training session will cover:

• What supplies you will need and your options
• How to determine your constraints for seed starting
• How many seedlings to plant
• How to prepare your soil mix
• Germination requirements
• How to provide light and water
• How to track your seedlings
• Preventing common problems

Your instructors are Rob Wokaty and Jason Matyas.  Rob is an expert gardener, and master beekeeper who lives in Richmond, Virginia.  Jason is the producer of the Beyond Off Grid project, homesteader, and lifelong gardener who with his wife and seven children grow most of the produce that they consume each year.
