Getting Seeds to Sprout is Much Easier with Coconut Pellets Hopefully

 Using coconut pellets is what I have started to use this year to get my seeds to start sprouting quickly and easily.  Hopefully this will get my plants off to a very good start and will be much healthier when I start placing them in the garden.  Although that is very from far now since it is still cold to place anything outside just yet I want to make sure that they start out right.  Hopefully these pellets will prove to be a worthwhile investment.

Previously I had planted some alyssum, dill, and wildflowers seeds into large plastic containers and they have been sprouting quite.  I would say this year they have all sprouted more successfully than any other that I had planted these same flowers.  I usually plant them in between rows to attract the insects that are needed in the garden.  These particular flowers end up bringing some of the best insects that any gardener could ask for.

 I also have spinach, kale, and some lettuce that are doing pretty well in the cool cellar that I keep them in until the weather temperatures are a little bit warmer.  Right now the weather is still too cold to start placing these plants outside, but it won't be long until I start hardening them out and preparing them to be placed in the garden.  For now I am going to be keeping them inside underneath some cheap fluorescent lights until time is right for outside growing.  

 I still have many more seeds to plant, but for now I have just started with some summer crop seeds for an early start.  I still have to plant pumpkins, zucchini, carrots, and many other flowers too.  I like to plant flowers early as well which include amaranthus, cosmos, statice, calendula, queen Anne's lace, and much more which are also used for insect attracting.
