Seed Starting with kids

Kids gardeningInspire your kids and grandkids to become gardeners this year!  Our easy-to-use All Roots Seed Starting System is a great way to introduce little ones to growing.  The kit comes complete with grow plugs, floating foam tray, plastic base and a humidity dome.  The unique design allows grow plugs to absorb just the right amount of water, taking all the guess work out of watering! For faster and more uniform germination, try our Seedling Heat Mat and the Jumpstart Light System.  Position the light only 2-3” above the young seedlings to keep them strong and sturdy.  The jumpstart light is easy to adjust as the seedlings grow taller.

For winter greens try planting our Keep ‘Em Coming Salad Blend, then plan to early sow transplants in the Seed Starting System 6-8 weeks before your last frost date.  Tomatoes and peppers need this early start in order to succeed in most grow zones.  When it’s time to move the seedlings into the garden the entire plug can be planted, eliminating any root disturbance and transplant shock! This is a great way to teach kids how plants grow and how great growing your own produce tastes. Check out our great selection of vegetables at Gardens Alive!
