I have a couple of questions that i hope does not confuse everyone in a 3 mile radius. I live in Zone 8 in Florida and went to the ATP calendar on seed sowing for fall. Well it said for June 30-Aug 14 to sow seeds indoors on some things. So Saturday I started Broccoli, Cauliflower, Brussel Sprouts and a few tomato varieties. Well come Monday most of everything has already germinated and sprouted up in my seeds starting trays. (was NOT expecting that to say the least) Well now I am wondering if I did not start them too early. Do I take the top off since some germinated? What about the ones that did not? Shouldn't the cool weather stuff go out later in the year? How long should you keep seedlings in those trays? How long should seedlings be left in those pods before you put them out anyway? I am wondering why the calendars show so many varying dates from one site to the next. I am a newbie at all of this and I think I may have jumped the gun not knowing. but then I looked back yesterday and saw it saying in the notes it says better to start indoors around July 27 so I am not that far off. I have googled everywhere to answer these questions but everything is so cut and dry about things and not specific. If anyone has any advise for a newcomer to gardening please help me! This is all so confusing to me when I guess maybe it is not to people who have been doing it.
Thanks
