Supporting Seedlings: A Beginner's Guide for Healthy Growth

In this episode of EcoAlchemy, I’m sharing essential tips to help your seedlings grow strong and healthy. As seedlings grow taller, they become more vulnerable to bending or breaking, especially for plants like tomatoes and peppers. Learn how to properly stake your seedlings early to ensure they stay upright and focused on healthy development. We’ll also dive into fertilizing—why it’s critical as your seedlings deplete nutrients from their starter soil and how to choose a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. I’ll guide you through gentle, effective techniques for feeding your seedlings without overwhelming their delicate roots. With the right support and nutrients, your seedlings will be well on their way to thriving in your garden.
