right now i have them in a copost mix with lots of peralite since i know they like to drain well.. the roots where a little dry and some of the new sprouts have withered during shipping so the soil is damp not wet or soaked ...

thank you for advice on this Tammy

ive tried a few things, but im new at this. Ive accidentally let some (seeds) dry out, and some stay too wet. Use a normal-shaped pot, shallow containers dry out too quick.
Im using about 1/3 cocopeat, 1/4 sand, and potting soil right now. Im ordering CHCs soon to put my trees in, might save the smaller pieces for my smaller seedlings.
