Preparing the Soil 

The ideal soil for seed is light 
and porous but will hold moisture 
enough to permit good germina- 
tion. 
A good soil mixture for seeding 
either indoors or outside is: % 
light loam, 4 sand and 4 granu- 
lated peat moss. The addition of 
leaf mold improves the mixture. 
The top 2 inches of a seed bed 
should be screened through a 
%-inch mesh screen. The ingre- 
dients should be thoroughly mixed 
and, just before sowing, firmed 
down with a flat block of wood or 
similar implement.
