Germinating seeds in baggie?

scottfsmith · February 15, 2007

I don't have a heat mat and I always have a few varieties that I have to re-seed due to non-germination, so this year I am thinking of germinating them in baggies with a wet paper towel and placed in a warm area (the warm area is too small for all the pots but can fit a ton of baggies). Once the root pops out I will plant them in the dirt. I have done this in the past for seeds besides tomatoes that I was having major germination problems on. It worked great. Anyone try this on tomatoes?
