I am new to vegetable gardening and have been using this for my seeds. Would you recommend I use this throughout the life of my plants?

No. It has very little nutrition for your plants. I am a square foot gardener and highly recommend the book a method. You can replace the use of this with Mel's mix.

I use a smaller amount every two weeks. This is the first year I'm using this, but for now, the plants look good despite the strange bi-polar weather we've had.

I planted my seeds directly into this soil in pots in my yard so that is what they are growing in. Everything is growing wonderfully. My sugar snap peas are tall and are in bloom. I don't have room for a garden in the yard which is why I used pots.

No, this is intended for starting seeds. The seedlings should be transplanted to your vegetable garden bed. If you are container gardening, transplant to large containers with potting soil.

No, you Will use "espoma seed starter just to grow your seeds, when your seedlings are 2 or 3 inches then you will transplant the seedling using pot mix soil (if using pots) or regular garden soil.

I use the one for cucumbers (recommended plant seeds are on the plate) but you may want to try a different one if the seeds are larger of smaller. I run a test by placing the seeder over a bucket and turning by hand to see how the plate picks up the seed.

I have used this on soil around delicate plants and it does not seem to effect them. This is a sollution meant to kill fungus gnat larvae and really serves no other purpose. I read through the information on the container and it says nothing with regard to dangers of using around fruits and vegetables. I do use this indoors.

Yes, it works quite well at loosening the soil for seeding. That is one of the reasons I bought it.

I think just like any other machine, as long as you are careful when getting close to the plant base. I used it in my vegetable garden. It is nice and small so it fits in smaller places than other cultivators.

Yes. It improves the environment of your root system, and produces hardier stalks. It basically makes the plant stronger and tougher, and able to carry more weight. It makes the biggest impact during veg as far as growth goes, but you will really see the results during flower in how well built and strong your plant looks. It doesn't seem to impact the plant during the flowering phase of it's life, so I stopped adding it in once the transition stretch is complete. You might have different results in that regard, though. People have their own opinions on it, and their might be some science out there that answers that question, but I haven't seen it. Hope that helps. Yes. It improves the environment of your root system, and produces hardier stalks. It basically makes the plant stronger and tougher, and able to carry more weight.

Yes, it's for in-house plants, vegetables, even medical marijuana and many other plants that are grown in containers. Also the old used Pro-Mix is a excellent soil conditioner for outdoor flower beds and the backyard garden so nothing is wasted.

no, it is too much like peat moss, I wouldn't use it to sow seeds, it is a mix in type of product. HTH

I believe so...I used it for plants I bought (vegetables) in 6 packs...but I believe I have used it for chilies etc. If it did not burn the tender roots on 6 packs, I would think it would be okay for seeds.

I used it straight through veg and flower and had great results. If you have access to a MH though, i'd use that for veg.

This product is designed to be used on pre-prepared soil, like that in a vegetable or flower garden. It is fabulous for that; I just love mine! However, if you are trying to 'break' new ground or ground that has not been previously prepared, buy an engine driven tiller. Always buy the tool that fits the job!

Should be fine I use it on vegetables and all my flowering plants inside and out. It's an awesome fertilizer

Yes it works very well for all vegetables, in containers or in a garden. Just follow the directions and you will be pleased with the results.

It appears yo be okay for your plant. It says all plants and I have used it for 4 different types. Should be safe

I used this after my "fruit" is finally set in the garden. I was told it's good for enhancing the growth and flavor of the vegetable garden. So far, I've been very pleased with the results and will continue to use it. Prior to fruit/vegetable set, I would use the Fox Farm Grow Big to strengthen and get the plants a bit bigger to handle the produce.

Yes, that is what I use it for. I soak the peas for awhile and then roll them in the Innoculant. The nitrogen boost helps with germination.

I would not recomend it. I used it on my plants. Better to get plain Neem oil to use.
