HOW TO PLANT SEEDLINGS IN FLATS ie 
All delicate plants such as Petunias, Stocks, Snapdragons, many vegetables like Tomatoes, Peppers, Cabbage, Celery, : es 











etc., and all perennials are best grown this way from seed. It saves time, and the resulting seédlings are huskier, ready

cast) or in rows which can be 
marked with labels. Soak flat

pots to keep drainage holes 
open.

Za leaf mold and garden loam 
and sand. With hand firm
