SEEDLING TRAY

Start your journey by planting your seeds here! Remember to transplant them when the seedlings have grown and rooted. The general rule of thumb is to put about 3 seeds per cell. When they are ready to be transplanted, gently push out from the bottom of the tray, and try not to damage the roots.
