Here are the steps to use a plastic cupcake container to create a mini greenhouse for seed sowing:

Collect the materials needed: plastic cupcake container, potting soil, seeds, and a spray bottle.

Fill each cupcake cavity with potting soil, leaving a small space at the top.

Place one or two seeds in each cavity, following the recommended depth and spacing for the particular plant you are growing.

Cover the seeds with a thin layer of soil and lightly water them with a spray bottle.

Put the plastic lid on the container and place it in a warm, sunny location, such as a windowsill.
Check the soil regularly to make sure it stays moist, but not waterlogged. If needed, use the spray bottle to add a little more water.

Once the seeds start to sprout, remove the lid to prevent mold growth and promote air circulation.

Continue to monitor the seedlings and water them as needed until they are large enough to transplant to a larger container or into the ground.

Using a plastic cupcake container is a great way to create a mini greenhouse for starting seeds indoors. It helps to retain moisture and warmth, providing an ideal environment for seed germination.
