Sheryl,
I use those take-out containers. The ones with the black bottom and clear plastic tops. I fill it with a sandy mix with good potting soil. I then put in the microwave for about a few minuets to make sure it is free from moss or whatever. It is very hot to the touch and let set till tomorrow. Mean time, the seeds are soaking in a mix of Root-tone and warm water. Next day mix the two together. Spreading the seeds evenly and just tap into the soil but not in the soil. Cover and check every few days. This mix must not be wet but damp and after the seeds are about a month old, start to leave the lid off some. Later divide into their own pots with proper soil mix.
This is what works for me. So far on all the seeds I started.
