The beginning of March is still the same active time when vegetable seeds are sown for seedlings.

We will tell you what is too early to plant at this time, and what is right on time. Although the only exceptions for the first days of spring are, perhaps, root crops and greens.

What to sow for seedlings in early March

First of all, this is a good time to plant tomatoes and peppers.

Together with these representatives of the nightshade family, it’s time to start growing eggplant seedlings.

It is important to follow such rules as the depth of seed placement (no more than a centimeter), choose a warm and bright place for germination, and also carry out proper watering.

Pepper seeds are sown in a similar manner. Moreover, the soil can be the same as that purchased for sowing eggplants.

At this time, late-ripening varieties of tomatoes are sown.

In this case, you need to germinate the seeds first. There are many ways, but the easiest is to place them in a damp napkin and leave them in a warm place.

Tomato seeds are planted in the soil at the same depth as eggplant and pepper seeds.
