Who else is already dreaming of green grass and garden dirt? 🥹 I’m sitting here with my coffee just itching to get my hands in some soil... but since it’s still chilly out, let’s bring a little bit of spring inside! 🌱
If you’ve never tried seed starting, please don’t be intimidated. Seriously. I used to think you needed a fancy setup, but you really just need a little love and the basics. 🤩
Here are my top 3 tips to get those babies growing:
✨ LIGHT: They need more than you think! If they get tall and skinny (we call that "leggy"), they’re just reaching for more sun. ☀️
✨ WARMTH: Seeds love to stay cozy. A heat mat under your trays is a total game-changer for getting them to pop up.
✨ WATER: Keep it gentle! Use a spray bottle so you don’t wash the tiny seeds away. Think "moist," not "soaked." 💦
We’ve got everything you need at Janesville Hardware: from the seed trays and starting mix to the heat mats. Come see us and let’s get growing together!
