Sorry about these FAQ but i am dizzy from reading for the past week and finally decided to join a site and ask. I was wondering is it best to start my sproutlings in 16oz dixie cups with some seed starter made by miracle grow. I know this is a fierce subject and I am a total amatuer first timer (term gained from my previous internet exploits). I don't care about the perfect soils I just want it to grow this time. I'll advance my techniques with soil brands as I gain experience. Then after a week to two weeks transplant from the seed starter in 16 oz cups to a mixure of three-quarters 3 month time release miracle grow potting soil and one-quarter perlite in 5 gallon pots. My question here is regarding the time to switch from the 16 oz cups with the seed MG starter soil to the 5 gallon pots of the other potting soil mixture. I heard not to expose the plantlings while they were too young to the stronger fertilized soil. I also read not to transplant them to 2 different soils because they stop growing and react badly to the new environment. I also read not to keep them in the 16oz cups long cause the roots would outgrow the space. I am confused and tired of reading. Please help me. Thanks....
