This is a tomato seed starting guide for new gardeners. You can also use this set up for peppers, eggplants and other vegetables. I show you how to build your own indoor grow-light, how to set up starting mix & plant seeds, how to water & feed your seedlings and how to acclimate your transplants to the outdoors. The table of contents will help you find what you need.
Options for Grow Lights I reviewed in another video.

Amazon price will vary as I quoted Walmart in store price.
