Hear Lisa Speak on Soil Blocking:
Here is what customers are saying about how soil blocking has changed their seed starting experience.
Hi Lisa: soil blocking for 1st time, seeds germinated on heat mats, then I put them out in garage under heat lamp, worried that it might be too cold for these babies (avg temp 60 degrees) they look kinda spindly, almost like they are damping off . should I bring them back inside under and put them under lights? How cool can these babies tolerate? Thanks for the help!! Marla
What are you growing? Cool-season hardy annuals or warm-season tender annuals? Both will need 16 hours of light to grow properly– lack of light cause spindly. To get growth on cool-season 70 degree air temp and warm-season 75 or higher.
