Get Started With Confidence

Step 1: Prepare the Soil

Fill the 6-Cell or 4-Cell Tray with a seed starting mix. Lightly water the soil so it’s moist but not soaked. Gently press the soil down with your finger to remove any gaps, then refill if needed.

Step 2: Plant the Seeds

If your seeds are meant to be surface-sown, press them against the pre-dampened soil but leave them uncovered; some seeds need light to germinate. If they have a planting depth indicated on the packet, use a pencil, chopstick, or your fingertip to make an indentation to the correct depth and drop in the seed.

Step 3: Water the Seeds

Add a light misting of water from a spray bottle or just enough to moisten the seeds, then cover them with soil and lightly press down to ensure no air holes remain around the seed. If you have plastic wrap handy, loosely drape it over the top of the pot to promote high humidity conditions (seeds love this), or use a specialized dome cover.

Step 4: Find the Right Spot

Place your tray on a sunny windowsill or under a grow light, depending on what your seed needs. Keep the soil moist as the seeds start to germinate. Once you see the sprouts, remove the plastic wrap or dome.

Step 5: Care for Your Seedlings

Keep the healthiest seedling in each cell and remove extras with a pair of scissors, being careful not to damage the healthy seedling. Keep watering the soil from the bottom by adding water to the outer tray so the soil stays moist without splashing on the plants.

Step 6: Transplanting

Continue to keep the soil moist as your plant grows. When your plants are about 3 to 4 inches tall, carefully push them out of the tray using the large finger holes at the bottom, and transplant them into bigger pots or directly into your garden.

Helpful Tips:

• Soil Choice: Use a lightweight, seed-starting mix like peat or coco coir and vermiculite. Avoid heavy mixes or ones with fertilizer.
• Watering: Water from the bottom and avoid soaking the soil. You can use the condensation on the dome as a guide: more condensation means more moisture.
• Light: As soon as your seedlings sprout, place them under a grow light for 16 hours a day, with the light 4 to 6 inches above the plants.
• Transplant Time: Most seedlings are ready to be transplanted after about 4 weeks.

Cleaning Your Epic Starter Cells

We recommend hand-washing with hot, soapy water as the best way to keep the material in good shape for years of use. A good dish detergent should sterilize the trays enough to protect your seedlings.

Engineered for Healthier Plant Growth: Each cell in the Epic 6-Cell Tray has open corners and bottoms that allow air to naturally prune the roots, preventing them from circling and helping them grow stronger. This leads to healthier plants when it’s time to transplant.

Epic Exclusive Design: Easy to use, these trays all fit perfectly into a larger system. The 12 6-Cell Trays fit inside one Epic Universal Bottom Tray, and the 8 4-Cell Trays fit into the other Bottom Tray in this kit, allowing you to easily manage your seedlings as a full set or lift out a single unit. When it’s time to transplant, built-in finger holes make removal simple. Just push and place.

Built to Last: Made in the USA from recycled, BPA-free, food-grade plastic, these trays are durable and safe for growing your plants. They can handle high temperatures and sunlight, giving you years of use without cracking.

Perfect For: Beginner gardeners looking for an easy, efficient setup to get started or experienced gardeners looking for a streamlined way to start seeds, transplant, and keep on growing.

Are the trays recyclable?

They are made from recycled, UV-resistant, BPA-free, American plastic, but because our trays are super strong and reusable, you can use them season after season instead of recycling them.

Can I mix Epic trays and pots that aren’t included in the kit?

Yes. Our Epic trays, domes, pots, and heat mats all work together so you can build on to the Premium Seed Starting Kit to create your ideal gardening setup.

How long will my trays last with regular use?

Epic Trays are rigid, yet flexible. They’re practically unbreakable and with proper care, should last you a lifetime.

How do I clean my trays between plantings?

We recommend hand-washing with hot, soapy water as the best way to keep the material in good shape for years of use. A good dish detergent should sterilize the trays enough to protect your seedlings.

Will the soil fall out of the 6-Cell or 4-Cell Trays?

As long as your mix is formulated properly, it won’t fall out. Each individual cell in our Epic Trays features an air-pruning side slot on all four corners to discourage root circling and encourage better root growth. The bottoms of each cell are also open, providing air pruning at the lower end of each cell.

When should I transplant my seedlings?

Transplant your seedlings when they are 3 to 4 inches tall. To remove your plants, simply push the seedling out with your finger, then transplant them into your garden or a larger pot.
