Starting vegetable seeds indoors can reduce the cost of transplants and allow you to grow varieties that may be difficult to find in nurseries. To get started, you will need a soilless mix; growing containers; and the proper moisture, light (like a south-facing window) and temperatures between 65-75°F. When your seedlings reach two-to-four inches tall, gradually expose the plants to longer periods of direct sun each day to transition them to the outdoors over a period of two weeks.
