Seed Starting Methods 2012
PART I http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/1246528/
PART II http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/1248111/

This season, Hornstrider used IHORT and Root Riot Seed Starting plugs instead of Jiffy Mix to start his tomato seedlings, and his results thus far have been outstanding. Hornstrider reports that he has the biggest, thickest stemmed, healthiest, greenest tomato plants he's ever started!

And, one of the greatest "plugs" for the plugs is that Horn DIDN'T MAKE A MESS! No potting mix flying everywhere!

Since this info could be helpful to people who have not started their seedlings yet (like the folks up north), we opened up a lively discussion on seed-starting methods. Feel free to join us. Catch up on the first TWO threads, then come back and share your own methods here, and post plenty of pictures!

Godspeed, and Good Harvest! ^:-)^
