Starting Seeds in the Garage

angelique · January 5, 2008

Hi All,

I recently moved. In my previous house, I would start tomato plants in a greenhouse window that was located in my kitchen. Although my germination was low, I always ended up with more than enough plants.

Now that I am in my new house, I have very light carpet. There really isn't an idea place to start my seeds.

I had thought about trying to start them in the garage with a heating mat and overhead lighting. I am not sure if this will work so I thought that this was a good opportunity to get feedback.

I live in Zone 9, Rocklin, California. I hope to have my tomato seeds started by 2/15.

Thanks

Angelique
