Dissolve growing medium pellet in 1 tablespoon of water, fluff with a fork, and place into the pot. Use the Sowing Info table (below) to determine how deep to plant your seeds. Sow seeds and lightly cover with the growing medium. Place in a warm, bright location with ample air circulation; keep growing medium moist but not overwatered. Once seedlings develop their second set of leaves, begin watering with plant fertilizer mixed at half-strength. Transplant seedlings to the garden or larger pot once they reach 2-3" tall.

Spruce: 1/4"
Alyssum - Carpet of Snow: surface, do not cover
Christmas Basil: 1/4"

Tip: Soak spruce seeds for 24 hours prior to planting to prepare them for sprouting and to improve germination.
