Ditto. The only downside to this method is having to transplant twice: once to soil pots after sprouting, then to the ground.

- prawn 7y agoIf the seeds are in paper towel, wouldn't you just plant it as is and let it decompose?
- pvaldes 7y agoYou want the roots finding real food as soon as possible before exhausting the seed reserves.
- jdmichal 7y agoOh yes. You'll destroy the roots if you try to separate it. What I meant is that you will typically only sprout seeds that way. Then you put them in a small starter pot or similar with soil to get them to continue growing inside. Then transplanting them into the ground once ready. This is opposed to just sprouting in the starter pot.

Consider getting a soil block maker, it makes propagation and transplanting so much easier: https://growagoodlife.com/soil-blocks-for-growing-seedlings-2/ https://growagoodlife.com/soil-blocks-for-growing-seedlings-...
