Practical Tips for Planting Seeds Indoors
Seed Starting Mix
This seed starting mix contains about 30 to 40% compost, some 30% garden soil, and 30% coco peat or peat moss.
Planting Tomato Seeds
Let’s plant tomato seeds first. Just space them well and cover them with some mix. Do not sow them too deep.
Planting Greens like Cilantro or Coriander
Now let’s plant some greens like cilantro or coriander. You need to use the sandpaper trick to split the seeds into two before sowing. Each seed is technically a fruit containing two seeds in it, so you get two plants from one single seed. You can check a detailed episode on this topic HERE.
Planting Green Leafy Vegetables
Now let’s plant other green leafies like spinach and fenugreek. Do not sow them too deep. Cover with a thin layer of potting mix. Generally, the sowing depth should be 2 times the seed thickness.

Features of BESTVA Pro 4000-Watt LED Grow Light
BESTVA Pro 4000 Watt is a large full spectrum grow light with high-quality Samsung LM301B LEDs and double Mean Well Drivers, which means a long life. This light comes with a 3-year warranty.

The dimensions of this light are 543 x 512.6 x 77mm, and it weighs 9.4 kgs – that’s huge.
Dimmer Switch
The best part of this light is it comes with a Dimmer Switch which goes from 100% all the way down to zero and even with a power-off function. This is really helpful for many reasons, which we will discuss later.
Auto Sensing Power Supply
Another useful feature is its auto-sensing power supply that works on both 120VAC, 240VAC, and 277VAC. It comes with a dual power cord. You need to connect it like this into the sockets. This power cord has another on/off switch available in the cord itself.
Coverage Area and Power Consumption
Let us now look into the area covered or the number of plants that can be grown using a single light. According to the company specifications, it actually covers a large area. Vegetative coverage at 18 inches is 7.5 x 7.5 feet and flowering coverage at 14 inches is 6 x 6 feet, which is a lot of space. You can grow a lot of plants.
Other technical specifications are: Power Consumption 415W and PPFD 2.9 umol/J. This light is a full spectrum light covering the entire growth cycles of a plant starting from the seedling stage.
Hanging the Grow Light
Let’s quickly hang this light. This comes with a different hanging design. These knobs are fitted into these grooves or anchor points at four corners and tightened. Then you just hang it to the ratchet hanger, which allows you to adjust the distance of this light from the plants. This distance is important and varies with the different growth stages of a plant: Seedling stage: 60cm (24″), Growing stage: 40-60 cm (16″- 24″), and Flowering stage: 30-40 cm (12″-16″). If you increase this distance and want to cover a larger area, you need to keep it on for longer than 12 hours. This also depends on whether or not you use a grow tent.
So overall, this is a great quality grow light if you want to grow anything indoors, anytime, any season!
Happy Gardening!
