Post #6242229

I just received my first Coleus seed ever. Now knowing which variety I would like the best I ordered the Rainbow Florist Strain Mix from Johnny's.

I am thinking of planting the seed in peat pellets covered with a clear dome and placed under indoor lights until germination. The instructions for planting suggest to place the seed on top of the growing medium.

To you old timers out their, is there a preferred method for starting Coleus seed?

Are there any caveats I should be aware of in trying to start Coleus from seed?

Thanks,

Jerry
