Use a full-spectrum light to start seeds in Michigan. Light from a window is not enough! |

Most seeds should be started in soiless/seed-starting medium rather than potting soil. |
This week, our Master Gardener's Class lesson was on vegetables and seed starting. The charts that we were provided were so useful that I HAD to share them with you all. So, here they are in one convenient on-line collection!
The charts are primarily applicable to zone 5b (Southern / Central Michigan).
Much of this information and more can also be found at the
MSU Extension website.
Favorable conditions for seed storage: Cold and dry (e.g. dry seed in an air-tight container in the refrigerator.)
