Am growing sweet peas inside to give a head start. Soil is mildewy. Help?

I removed the plastic top cover %26amp; turned on a sun lamp. However, many of the seeds haven't germinated yet. What should I do?

From my experience, sweet peas do not transplant well. The mildew grew before you removed the top cover so that means they weren't getting enough air circulation. I would wait until it is mild enough to plant outdoors.

Reply:I like to use NO DAMP. It's a liquid I mix with the water %26amp; it sterilizes the soil so tender new plants don't rot off at the surface of the soil. Good Luck with your sweet peas.

Reply:i agree with Raul. but i would wait a while longer before throwing the seeds away, sometimes it take a long time for them to germinate.
Reply:Start over. Use new dirt, and not so much water.
