This is my longer format video series called Gardening 101 found exclusively on my 2nd YT Channel My First Vegetable Garden. It can be searched with a digital table of contents. I explain things slowly and in detail for new vegetable gardeners. This episode is all about starting herbs, lettuces/greens and peppers indoors. I provide tips on starting mix and show you a peat based starting mix and a coco coir based mix. I discuss the importance of not over fertilizing your plants and explain why. And don’t’ forget to use boiling water or a microwave on you starting mix to kill off fungus gnat eggs and other problems
