Peat Pots Boost Growth for Garden Starters
An old garden column extols peat pots for spring planting. Peat moss pots speed seedling growth indoors, ease transplanting, and reduce root disturbance. Horticulturists advise sterilizing soil, then plant two to three seeds or one seedling per pot, firm soil around roots.
Planting and transplanting tips for trays and pots
After planting soak pots thoroughly and keep plants barely moist in a shallow tray until transplant. Use Port A Planter trays on a window sill with as much light as possible. Maintain 55 to 75 degrees. Thin to one plant per pot if needed and transplant when roots breach pot walls, then soak, handle carefully, cover rims, firm soil, and water normally.
