Once the seedling is strong and has a good root system, the makeup of the potting mix seems to become less important. The "potting up mix" that I am having so many problems with for starting seeds was just fine to produce huge, healthy transplants.
I don't think I will ever start seeds except in pre-packaged starting mix again. I have received recommendations to get a block of Pro-Mix and just shave off and moisten what I need, that it's as good (and cheaper) than a bag of seed starting mix each season.
