Can you give more details?

What's the growing medium? Seed starting mix? Other?

What are the seedlings actually planted *in*? That is, are
they all together in just the flat, or are they in 6-packs
or peat pots or what?

Have you fed them with any fertilizer/plant food? If so,
what kind and how often?

Can you give an estimate of how many hours of sunlight they
receive per day (on average)?
