  1. please also tell about fungus gnat.. its a very painful problem. i have fungus gnat in my tomato seedling and trying to do many things but fail….can you give some advice or tips about it

  2. Luke you should sell trifecta + at Walmart and other store's like that. I've been using your product and it works great! If you sell trifecta in stores you would be making a ton of business.

  3. can you make a video about sterilizing soil if its needed or not for seed starting?? I started seeds one year and basically followed this whole series, grow light, fan to keep air moving, drainage etc and my plants were doing great, they were beyond the seedling stage and was into their vegetative state, 6-8 inches tall, and one morning I woke up to all of them laying over die, perfectly healthy the night before( the greenest fleshy "beefest" leaves and stems, die the next day… the only reason I can come up for this happening is there must have been some fungi in the soil that infected the plants and hollowed out their stems!… an explanation or anything on what might have happened here would be great!

  4. Ugh!…. you have sooooo many videos on seed starting mixes .. I did the jiffy mix with perlite and worm castings. That you did a video on…. hopefully everything will be ok…

  5. The link you provide to the seed starting mix is just a compressed block of coconut coir. It also doesn't mention in the listing if the coco coir in it has been washed and buffered.
    If it hasn't then it isn't great for planting in unless you're aware it needs to be rinsed of the salts and then buffered with calcium and magnesium. Otherwise, plants will almost certainly develop a deficiency.

  6. So I used this burpee seed starting mix last year and had trouble with seedlings growing past the “true leaf” phase. They just wouldn’t get any bigger for months. I thought it was the soil mix…

  7. I just found your channel. Really enjoy it. Now my problem is I'm not to tech savvy. You said you'd put a link in below to find these parts for growing the plants. I really wish you could explain this to me so I could find these things and get them. Now before you laugh at me too much, I'm over 70 years old so I'm not too great at this tech stuff.. thanks.
