2. Successful Seed Starting Webinar

Dive into the world of starting seeds with this replay of our interactive live webinar! Although the opportunity to ask questions directly has passed, the presentation is packed with thought-provoking content you won’t want to miss.

Did you know you save $5 each time you choose a single seed over a storebought transplant? Take control over the varieties, nutrition, and flavors that you grow at home and learn the seed-starting methods we’re using this spring at the Mother Earth News Test Garden.

In this live webinar we’ll go over how to:

  • Craft seedling containers out of recycled materials
  • Calculate germination times and temperatures to avoid wasted seeds (and time!)
  • Troubleshoot problems like damping off, phototropism, and incorrect planting depth
