Hello Ramamurthi,
Apologies that you dint get a reply when posted earlier.What are the vegetable seeds that you want to sow?? OR in general you wanted to know about sowing. Here is a brief guide to vegetable sowing for beginners.
Keep the following in mind when planning your garden:
Climate: What grows well in your region?
Space limitations: How extensive will your garden be?
Domestic habits: What would you like to eat from your garden?
Production levels: How many tomatoes do you really need?
Aesthetic desires: How would you like the space to look?
Sowing the seeds: Moisten the soil in the containers before sowing the seeds. Put two seeds in each container to ensure something emerging. Generally, gardeners cover the seeds to a depth about 3 times the thickness of the seeds. Be sure to read seed packets for seed specific instructions. Pat the soil lightly and water with a fine mist.
Cover containers with plastic wrap to keep their environment humid. Place containers in a warm, protected place. Most seeds with germinate well at about 70 degrees F (20 degrees C).4
It is better to treat the seeds with a fungicide before sowing to avoid seed borne diseases.
If you have any specific question regarding a particular crop please write back.
