Hope I don't seem like I'm being pedantic here. If I'm going too far by alerting the admins of minor errors like this, please let me know. Smiling

The Starting Tomato Seeds article contains a grammatical error in the second sentence: "Follow these basic steps for growing healhty transplants."

Is this another error, or intentional? It is in the same article: "...fill your seedling tray or individual containers, and, and firm the surface."

Thanks! I edited that. Thumbs up

There are many articles that still haven't been properly edited since we took over NGA. I'm sure we will continue to find errors from those (and our own works) for years to come!
