Notes highlighting tips for starting seeds - including equipment, considerations for selecting seeds, descriptions of soil-less seed starters - Jiffy brand, Organiz Plug, and Espoma, the importance of moisture, watering the new plants from below, and managing light. A good potting soil mix is required for transplanting, and it should include perlite, compost, and vermiculite.
