New Grower Newbie needing some help

And I did purchase a seed dome/germinator with a heating pad and was going to use that, but then I was swayed to the nature method. Seems as though I can use it and everything will be fine. Do I move my lil sprouts to their final home after they show four leaves or is there a specified time or amount of days? Sorry I'm full of questions, I just wanna become a subject matter expert on these babies
 
Hey and welcome!
i soak my seeds in warmish water until they crack, about 24 -36 hrs and then right into the pot they will live in. Use a pencil and make a hole about 3/8 " deep and drop the cracked seed in, lightly cover it with soil. Worked well the last time I did it.
Peace and happy growing.

WeeWillie's method is sound. I use paper towel until I get a few millemeters of tap root then straight into final pot. Either way is sound. As is seed straight into pot. There are many ways and you choose what seems best for you. I like to see that the seed has a tap root before I put it into final pot so that I KNOW it is on its way.
I have never used a dome but it sounds like a good idea. Be confident bro' I know you can do it. I was full of doubts too when I got started, but it will all come together. Just don't overwater or overfeed.
Good luck, eP.
 
I think I'm going to germinate them in my germinator. The soil that I put in it, should it be the same as the soil in its final pots? I'm thinking I should so it doesn't freak the lil guys out. Yea I'm being confident and think I can get this perfect.
