Starting Spring

A group of eager gardeners met on Thursday, March 20th at the home of Lee Graham to learn the secrets of successful seed-starting. Lee and Sue Conard, seed starters extraordinaire, provided tips on containers, soil mixes, light, heat, and varieties of seed. While attendees learned that there is no single “right” way to start plants from seed, much can be done to avoid the inevitable pitfalls that might discourage a novice. Many left the workshop with containers planted and ready to germinate!
