How to Start a Seed Bed 
For starting seed indoors, use a shallow box. Place pieces of 
broken clay pots over drainage cracks to prevent clogging, then 
spread some soil lumps over the bottom before you fill the box 
with a mixture of equal parts of sand, soil and peat moss. Pile 
high in the box, Press down firmly on the sides with your hands. 
Scrape off surpuls soil with a board or tamper. Firm loose soil 
until it is spread evenly about 34 inch below the top of the seed 
box. 
Then, mark off straight rows about 2 inches apart. Sow seeds 
uniformly thick, just so they don’t touch. Use an old kitchen 
sieve to screen soil over the top after the seed are sown. Do not 
cover with more than ™% inch of soil. Use the tamper to firm 
the soil over the seeds. Water soil after firming, Place a strip of 
burlap over the box and pour water over it. Never pour water 
on the bare soil. Another effective way of watering is to place 
the box in a pan of water. Cover the box with newspaper or a 
piece of glass to prevent fast drying. Keep moist. 
When seedlings appear, remove the newspaper. If you are using 
glass, leave it on a little longer, but slide it over a bit to give air.
