Yeah Torog, I'll be mixing perlite and vermic to my soil when they go into bigger pots. I don't think seedlings really need soil additives, mine have always done fine without it.
I didn't start the seeds off in those pots. What happened was I had a shitload of 3 year old seeds and I wasn't expecting to get a high germination rate, so I put about 150 seeds in some wet paper towel and about 90% sprouted! I only kept 20 so over 100 healthy seeds went in the trash! I planted the seeds I was keeping in a
trough-like planter box which was a mistake because it got overcrowded and I had to transplant them into their own pots (in picture). They didn't appreciate this one bit and let me know about it when all their leaves curled up and went yellow n' shit. I should have known better! They're doing great now though.

catch ya later Torog
