Now is the time to get ready to grow your own seedlings! It's not really hard, and can extend your growing season by many weeks. For example, by grow the plants of Brassica's (cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower) in February in your basement under-lights, you can put large, sturdy transplants in your garden by the end of March or early April, and will they eat when others are seen only as they come! However, pointed out that photosynthesis, using light, heat and moisture caused plant growth, you need a few key natural principles very carefully, or follow you will be disappointed.
First, seed moisture to germinate and grow. And the soil mix should be moist but not mushy, or you're going to drown, the new plant because it also needs oxygen!
Secondly, is important during heat, the temperatures are occurring in a narrow range be maintained for optimum germination. Most vegetable seeds germinate rapidly between 75 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit. After the plants up, many of them will grow in cooler temperatures, but most everything will cease to grow at rest () at temperatures below 50 degrees.
Third, light is not necessary for the germination of seeds and seedlings as soon as your rise from the ground, is now a maximum of light for a orderly development required. Therefore grow in your house, make sure your plants have a strong (but not hot!) Light source directly on the plants, for up to 16 hours per day. two grow-light shelves, pictures in the PHOTOS section of the free group on horticulture MittleiderMethodGardening@yahoogroups.com . The metal is one six-shelf Commercial Chrome shelves of Sam's Club costs only $ 70, and 20 flats of plants to keep. Suspend shop lights with 2 cool and 2 warm 40-watt tubes 2-4 "above the plants.
The fourth principle relates to feeding. A balanced nutrient mix of 13 minerals is required, the Plants immediately after germination. These nutrients are mineral salts and must be very dilute in the soil moisture, or osmosis, causing the salt to the invigorating moisture to benefit from the plants, and they will die. To ensure that you never burn your plants, water seedlings daily with the "Constant Feed Solution of one ounce (2 tablespoons) of weekly feed dissolved in 3 liters of water.

Furthermore, it is important to separate your small plants their hand before starting to overlap with others', or the little stem is very weak and spindly, like all the plants stretch – In search of more light. By the time the plants have their first or second true leaf, this step should be completed. Failure to even wait a couple of hours to result in spindly, weak plants that never recover. Transplanting seedlings in 2 "6-paks or pots will provide enough space for him in additional 2-3 weeks to grow, depending on the variety. If it is still too early to put them in the garden by the time plant leaves are again beginning to overlap, prune the leaves, transplant into larger pots again, or separate pots, so that the leaves of the plant will always have a maximum of light.
Before transplanting in the garden, "harden off" your plants outdoors, used on the floor for 2-3 days to get it out of direct sunlight, temperature, wind, etc. This is important so that the plant is not included on the shock of new surroundings, to cause the shock to their root system by transplanting. If the weather in the night is cold, the plants put back into the house. Setting the temperature must be gradual.
For many of your plants, not the pruning process double duty. In addition to securing the maximum brightness, it shocks the plant easily, allowing it to pause in their growth and produce a thick, strong trunk. This process makes the plant better able to the vicissitudes of the outside world, such as bear Cutworms, ants, etc., which often quickly decimate plants with weak, thin stems.
For high-growing plants such as tomatoes, from the time they are 12 "high, small piles offer tied to the plant stem to protect it from falling over to . Prevent And with tomatoes, begin immediately to remove all strains Sucker, as soon as they appear, into a single, strong parent and ensure the maximum production from your plant.
