Planting

Planting

Planting is just the process of your getting your seeds to germinate. Now, that you have gotten your lettuce seeds lets get them in moisten soil. This is how they will germinate and become plants.

To moisten the soil I will start by using concentrated fish emulsion. If you take a 1/2 gallon of tap water or rain water and add it 1/2 tablespoon of fish emulsion. Take your soil that you have prepared and moisten it with your water.

After the soil is in your planting trays add your seeds. Only lightly cover your seeds with soil. Next, place your lid on the top of your seed tray. If you place your seeds on top of your refrigerator it will give your seeds a jump start. Now, we will check back on the tray in a couple of days.

Hadn't thought of using fish emulsion with the seed starts! I'm going to give it a try! Thanks!
