FAQs about Indoor Seed Starting

I live outside of Texas. Is this course for me?

Yes. The content of this course is universal and applies to any region. The course resources include seed planting calculators and schedules to help you determine the right time to start your seeds. 

What if I'm a complete beginner?

If you're a complete beginner to gardening, then you couldn't have picked a better course to begin your gardening journey. Most gardeners never learn proper seed-starting techniques. Whether you've been gardening for 20 years or 2 months, this course will take your gardening skills to the next level.
