In segment 1 Joey and Holly go over several seedling and seed problems you may or have already faced
Seedling problems from indoors to garden
Old seeds are your seeds good
1 to 10 years seeds are good; germinations test
Damping off
Temperature is key for seeds to grow
Fungus Gnats
The barely discernible flies flitting about just above soil level are probably fungus gnats. While the adult flies don’t damage plants, their larvae can, feeding at the roots so that seedlings fail to flourish
Tiny flies may be fungus gnats, whose larvae feed on plant roots
Leggnest
seedlings turning yellow, white, or brown (and how to fix them)?
Overwatered seedling – Solution: Make sure the soil is never saturated or soggy, and drain excess water from the trays. A soil water gauge is a great tool to help you give them the perfect amount of moisture.
Fertilizer burn – Solution: Chemical fertilizers are notorious for burning delicate seedlings. Switch to a natural, organic seedling fertilizer rather than using chemical fertilizers. And always be sure to follow instructions on the package.
While garden seeds are commonly eaten by mice, most seedlings are damaged by voles, chipmunks, rabbits, or squirrels. In many cases, these small animals may be seen in the garden early in the morning or late in the evening
