they look like peat pellet germination kits....yeah i am using two right now, and i have used them before. many people wil trash them, but i've had good luck with them. I also use a propagation mat under them in the winter (the mat plugs in and keeps temp about 12-20F degrees higher than the room)

I dropped 18 seeds in two 12 pellet trays about a week ago and I am looking at 14 sprouts right now. 6 seeds are WW and those are all up (and looking good) and the other ones are bagseed, all are up except 4 of them, they do not look as robust as the WW right now but they're fine. I should note that two if the four that did not sprout were light (immature) seeds and i was just trying to see if they would germ. so basically i sprouted 14/16....not bad!

The way I use those things is to add hot water slowly til the peat expands, don't ad more water than the peat will hold, then put one seed in each pellet about 3mm down into the peat, then i put them under a cfl (24 hrs) and on the heat mat with the humidity dome on and let them do their thing. if you watered the peat enough there will be no runoff on the bottom of the container, and in a day or so the peat will be evenly moist, not soaking wet, and the temps will be in the 80's...perfect for germination. the humidity dome should keep them evenly moist for days, but chack them once a day and add water IF THEY LOOK DRY. If they are just moist then you are perfect. soaking wet is bad. then once the seeds sprout (or once most of them do) remove the humidity dome and make sure to keep the peat from drying out. for this i use a spray bottle once or twice a day, or you can use a dropper too. keep the cfl 3-4 feet away from the sprouts because they are fragile. if your peat dries out you will see the sprout sag, try to not let this happen.

you should be ready for transplant in two weeks time generally. make sure you remove the netting on the peat pellet before transplanting if there is one.

good luck!
