Prepare your work space

● Step 1 - Before you begin, read carefully the information about the specic seed

you are about to sow from the previous page. Make sure to check for presowing

& special instructions, if there are any. You can nd online the expected last frost

date based on your ZIP code. Following these instructions will increase your

success rate.

● Step 2 - Grab a plant marker from the kit, and write the seed’s name and

current date on it. We recommend using a black marker. Keep it nearby, you will

use it soon.

● Step 3 - Take one of the biodegradable growing pots and place it in your work

space. Notice that the pots have drainage holes at the bottom, so you might want

to place it on a water resistant surface.

Expand the peat soil discs

● Step 1 - Grab a big bowl and place one soil disc inside it.

● Step 2 - The soil discs expand faster when in contact with hot water. Heat 1-2

litres of water to approximately 122°F; This is the ideal temperature for expansion.

● Step 3 - Pour half a glass of the heated water directly on top of the soil disc. This

will soften the dry surface tension around the disc.

● Step 4 - Add small portions of water to the bowl (not directly on the soil disc),

and watch how the soil expands. Repeat this process until the soil disc reaches

6-8 times its original size.

DO NOT touch the disc while adding water as it can break inside the bowl. This

process should take 5-10 minutes. To make sure the disc has reached its full size,

gently touch the soil to look for any hard, unexpanded pieces.

● Step 5 - Let the expanded soil cool down for a couple of minutes before sowing

the seeds. Gently squeeze the soil to remove excess water.
