5.0 out of 5 stars Procedures that are known by heart by experienced gardeners still need explanation such as this to aid newbies getting started.
Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2014

Most of gardening is just common sense, but the problem is, it is common sense only after the new gardener learns them.

Starting seeds indoors is basically just common sense, but as someone once observed, common sense is not very common! This pamphlet takes a potentially complicated process and strips it down to its basics. If you are serious about gardening, you will very soon want to get a head start on the summer growing season, and that will mean starting seeds in flats in your basement or elsewhere while the great outdoors is still winter-hostile.

Complicated? No! Are there tips that are helpful to newbies? You bet! A half hour spent browsing through this pamphlet can easily save many hours later. I recommend it to you.

Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2016

Altogether, a great resource. The specificity with regard to caring for seeds, scarification/stratification, temperature and light considerations, is all quite helpful and not overwhelming.

I think drenching your "medium" with a solution of benomyl fungicide to prevent damping off is perhaps a little overkill. I'm by no means a chemical-phobe, but it would seem to me that good cleanliness/sanitation practices, not unlike those in home brewing, would be enough to prevent disease, especially if one is using sterile medium and cleaning their containers well enough. Does anyone know whether use of something like benomyl fungicide would be considered organic or not? I'm not familiar with the chemical.

This wee book is a real gem. It may have only 32 pages but every sentence is packed with solid advice. No wasted space. From planting to harvest, seeding to snipping, it’s all here. When I first saw it on Amazon, I thought, “Go ahead, order it. It’s certainly affordable and it’s likely to include at least a wee bit of information that isn’t covered elsewhere.” And, to be sure, it does. Precisely detailed, well-written, and meticulously thorough, for me, it has become a dependable “go to” source.

I found this booklet very helpful. It is full of concise, easy to understand facts. Before, I only had a general idea as to how to grow seeds indoors. This briefly and easily gave me the information that I needed. It also has a nice seed reference in the back with info such as: how long is germination, when you should start seeds, and that some seeds require special treatment you such as soaking, light, dark, warmth, or coolness in order to start the germination process. Great book for the beginner.

Very simple and strait forward. If you have zero knowledge of starting plants this book will be useful. However, this is very basic information so if you have any relative experience this book won't be worth your time. Great book for beginners, no nonsense.

I use it all the time-succinct. When you need a quick reference this is what I grab. Once I got the frost-free date for my zip code, I pencilled in the sowing dates. Easy to use and keep next to my seedlings so I know when to move outdoors.
