Leggy seedlings don’t have as much chance of success once you transplant them into the garden…if they even make it that far. The best way to solve the problem of spindly seedlings is to prevent them from getting that way in the first place. Set up your seed-starting area so you can give seedlings good light, an appropriate temperature, a suitable potting soil, and good containers. In this episode, Donna and Steven talk about best practices so that you can grow compact, healthy vegetable seedlings at home.
