Leigh,
I don't make a whole mess of seed starter, but I suppose one could - I
use coir and worm castings - from red wrigglers - for my plants, and add a
bit of various amendments - alfalfa meal, sea kelp, azomite - but just teeny
teeny bits of those. I water with liquid sea kelp to start, and every so
often.
I use composted goat bedding for transplants, along with some other
stuff.
The alfalfa is more sustainable, as it can be obtained locally - and the
worm castings too. I picked the coir because it less finite than peat.
The mix does absolutely great for seedlings. - Jill
