Thanks for all the advice. I experimented and started to germinate some herbs. I put them in jiffy pellets. I read a little and then realized those are only meant for 1 seed! Oops, I put a few seeds in each. Some of them have made it to their first tiny leaves (I think) though. I so far have: oregano (5 VERY TINY seedlings) sweet basil (3 seedlings, 1"-1 1/2" tall ), red robin basil (2 sdlgs in 1 pellet, 3 in another, not quite an inch), thyme (2 sdlgs, not even 1/8" yet), cilantro (4 sdlgs, 1 1/2"), dill (2 2" tall sdlgs, very thin and sick looking) all of those have a set of tiny leaves; parsley is just now sprouting, spearmint & chives nothing. Since I put more than 1 seed in each, what do I do? They are all under lamps. I mist them about 2 times a day. Do I need to put them into pots now? I don't think I'm going to put these outdoors. These are going to be window herbs. I want to get my veggies started, but it may be too soon. My other half hasn't started the beds yet. Not sure how big to make them or out of what. This is a picture of my generic set-up.
