Cole Robbie,
"Having some sort of humate or humic acid in the seed-starting mix will speed things up as well. Light Warrior seed-starting mix has a bit of worm castings. Light Warrior is very expensive, but I dilute it so much that one bag gets me through most of the year. A drench of compost tea also does the same. I have tested tomato seeds, and found that the compost tea drench makes them germinate about two days faster"
I agree about the humate or humic acid. Some commercial products contain it in very small amounts in their mix recipe, I would like to by it locally in a more pure form. I don't want to order it over the internet. How do you source yours?
