Meeting Room A room 154

Learn important seed-starting concepts and techniques from a University of Illinois Extension Master Gardener.

Most gardeners start seeds indoors to get a head start on the growing season, but timing and technique are key to success! By planning your indoor seed starting, you can grow healthy seedlings for your garden. Learn important seed-starting concepts and techniques, such as choosing the right seeds, using quality growing media, and providing proper lighting and care. We’ll also discuss transplanting seedlings and troubleshooting common issues to ensure a thriving garden from the start. 

Presented by the University of Illinois Extension.
