Many who can hardly wait to get started on their outdoor gardening find satisfaction in turning to their indoor gardening to get their fix. It gives them the connection they need to feel the soil between their fingers and know that spring is coming.

.

With such a wide variety of transplants available, one would wonder why you might spend the time and effort to grow your own. Transplants often give an earlier harvest or a beautiful floral display sooner in the season.

.

Growing your own starts also gives you access to new and unique plant cultivars that might not be available locally. Another possibility is that you may want to plant these plants before they are available in local outlets.

.

Make certain you start with good seed or starts. If the mother plant or the seed is questionable in quality, don't waste your time. Seeds must have a high germination percentage and must also produce a good crop of beautiful flowers.

.

Decide when you plan to move your transplants outdoors. After determining that date, count backward. For example, if the crop is a 10-week crop that you want to set out May 7, you would want to plant the seeds on Feb. 27.

.

While the recommendations for growing plants is produce them under ideal conditions, do not deviate too far from the recommended schedule. Tiny, poorly grown transplants do not grow well after moving, and overgrown transplants are quickly stunted.

.

Cleanliness is also important. Diseases, outbreaks or insect infestations can quickly destroy all of your hard work. Using recycled containers is fine, but make certain they are clean.
