Hi guys/gals
I have been reading it is best to start seeds in "seed starting"mix. As of now I have been using jiffy peat pellets with good success. My problem is I recently went back to work and the pellets are drying out too fast while I am away. Is there any reason WHY I can't use regular potting soil in cups to start seeds?
Everything I seem to read says to use seed starting mix because it does not have plant food in it. Someone enlighten me please! )
I have a whole bunch of super hots in pellets now, including Brain Strain & Butch T. Since they dried out completely in between watering should I assume they are no good now? I have some Morouga Yellow & Orange in this batch that HAVE germinated, but this is before I found them completely dry.
Thanks!!
Melissa
