A seedbed of rice plants

A seedbed or seedling bed is the local soil environment in which seeds are planted. Often it comprises not only the soil but also a specially prepared cold frame, hotbed or raised bed used to grow the seedlings in a controlled environment into larger young plants before transplanting them into a garden or field. A seedling bed is used to increase the number of seeds that germinate.

The soil of a seedbed needs to be loose and smoothed, without large lumps. These traits are needed so that seeds can be planted easily, and at a specific depth for best germination. Large lumps and uneven surface would tend to make the planting depth random. Many types of seedlings also need loose soil with minimal rocky content for best conditions to grow their roots. (For example, carrots grown in rocky soil will tend not to grow straight.)

Seedbed preparation

Seedbed preparation in farm fields often involves secondary tillage via harrows and cultivators. This may follow primary tillage (if any) by moldboard plows or chisel plows. No-till farming methods avoid tillage for seedbed preparation as well as later weed control.

Seedbed preparation in gardens often involves secondary tillage via hand tools such as rakes and hoes. This may follow primary tillage (if any) by shovels, picks, or mattocks. Rotary tillers provide a powered alternative that takes care of both primary and secondary tillage.

The preparation of a seedbed may include:

The seedlings may be left to grow to adult plant.

Growing Seedlings: Transplant from Tray - Park Seed

Follow these steps in up-potting/transplanting:

Water the seedling flat (from bottom) one hour before transplanting, so that seedlings can &#;drink their fill&#;. This means a complete soak, so that soil is wet, not just moist.

Moisten the soil, or the One-Step into which you&#;ll transplant, and fill the pots or cell inserts you&#;ll be growing in to within ¼ inch of the brim. Set pots in a tray. (If you&#;re transplanting directly to a seedbed, make sure it&#;s moist, soft and shaded.)

Dibble the soil in each pot by making a hole large enough to fit the seedling&#;s roots. Push the end of a pot label or a pencil an inch or so into the grow mix and move it back and forth to open the hole.
