Coffee filter to contain soil and roots to assist in transplanting. Toilet filter used to keep moisture near seed to enhance germination. Clear plastic bag to contain humidity. This means the seeds need no care until germination, when the bags will be opened. Any loose soil and water is contained by the bags, making a neat and clean plant area. http://www.durgan.org/URL/?PBDEP 5 March 2009 Tomatoes Germinated in 5 days. The plastic bags are turned back and now the seedlings are exposed to maximum light. During the day the containers will be placed in the greenhouse if the temperature is above 20 degrees C.
