Requirements
You should have already put some thought into what kinds of plants you'd like to grow in your garden before starting this course. You will also need to find the average last frost date for your growing region as that will be used to calculate seed starting and transplant dates. If you're a first time gardener, you'll need additional material beyond this course covering how to garden outside. Be prepared to take notes during the course. Summaries and notes are provided at the end of sections, but are not necessarily all inclusive of the points covered in that section.
The materials needed to accomplish the various steps of the process will be covered during the course, but a comprehensive list is not provided as my goal is to help you choose the materials best suited to your particular environment and needs - this is particularly important as many students will have a vastly different seed starting environment/needs in terms of space, temperature, lighting options, etc.
Description
Learn how to start seeds inside so you can enjoy the wonderful taste of heirloom vegetables that aren't available for purchase at the supermarket. From seed to plant ready for transplant outside, I will walk you through the process step by step showing you not only what I do, but why I do it so that you can not only successfully follow my method, but adapt it for your individual needs. This course can help you with your indoor seed starting regardless of whether you're planning an urban vegetable garden, a container garden, want to use the square foot method in raised beds, or want to go all organic with your gardening approach.

Seed Starting Inside is the Cornerstone of a Successful Garden - and the Only Option If You Want Access to a Wide Variety of Delicious Heirloom Vegetables.
I grow hundreds of varieties (yes - varieties) of heirloom vegetables each year, many of which must be started from seed inside if I wish to grow them - I can't go to a local store and purchase plants. Starting from seed not only allows me to save money on plants, but it also enables me to make sure I have strong healthy seedlings ready to plant out on my schedule. In a given year I'll start 45-60 different varieties of tomatoes, and 15-30 different varieties of sweet peppers inside - along with several other types of vegetables. Rest assured though that my methods will work for you whether you have a small container garden or a large three acre plot.
