Many gardeners are getting a jumpstart on the growing season by seed starting indoors. From hot peppers to sweet strawberries, home gardeners are more prolific than ever. Find everything you need to join in on seed starting at Ace, with a selection of seed starting kits, peat pots, plant trays and more.

What is Seed Starting?

Seed starting consists of planting your seeds in container pots, cells, or trays indoors and caring for the seedlings during the colder months in preparation for the weather to warm up. Seed starting early gives your seeds a stronger chance for survival and may help your plants have a healthier growing season.

Types of Plant Starters

Different types of plant starters allow for seed starting success. When looking to begin your seed starting journey, look for peat pots, bag planters, seed starting trays and more. Find out the benefits of each below to determine which is right for you.

Benefits of Peat Pots

Peat pots are a great way to begin planting seeds. Peat pots are organic, biodegradable containers that hold your seedlings. Organizing them on planting trays will help contain any run-off as they become saturated with moisture. Then, when outdoor growing conditions are ideal, the peat pots holding your healthy seedlings can be planted directly into the ground with the potting soils you choose.

Using Bag Planters

Another option for seed starting is to use bag planters. Also called a grow bag, this seed-starting solution is a large bag made of plastic or fabric that you fill with dirt to grow plants. Biodegradable options can go directly into the ground and break down over time. However, some varieties need to be removed when it’s time for a replacement.

Seed Starting Trays

Seed starting trays are an alternative to peat pots and bag plant starters. These plant trays have many tiny cell openings that you fill with soil and seeds, and their design makes it possible to start and maintain many seeds simultaneously. You can transplant the seedlings into larger containers or directly into the ground when they grow.

Ready-to-Go Seed Starting Kits

Seed starting kits are great for beginners just embarking on their seed starting journey. As well as planting trays, these seed starting kits often include other gardening essentials like fertilizer and soil. Purchasing a seed starting kit simplifies shopping and could save you money compared to purchasing similar gardening supplies individually.

Get Everything You Need for Seed Starting

Seed starting is experiencing a boom in popularity as more people realize that growing their favorite flowers, fruits and vegetables is simple, fun, and relatively inexpensive. To smoothly transition indoor seedlings outdoors, it’s helpful to have a few essential supplies on hand, such as LED grow light bulbs for your seedings and quality garden tools. Germination stations, greenhouse kits and garden systems also help provide optimal indoor growing environments and ease plant transitions outdoors.
