For our special assignment groups we were supposed to write down the best practices of our group. My group was propagation. What we did was basically study how to plant the seeds, like what types of seeds could be planted at what time, how many seeds how far from each other and ll that good stuff.
I found out that the seeds needed to be planted at least 2 inches away from each other in order for them to grow big and healthy. Some plants need a certain pH level before you plant them you should check the pH level, the structure and the texture of the soil, it is also a good idea to add compose so your plant has warmth and nutrients to grow. Once that is all done and you are ready to plant you should make a little hole with your finger and plant the seed about two inches deep. After that you cover it and water it. Some seeds require special attention so you might want to do some research about the plant before you plant it.

I realize that this is a general post but this is far too generic. Each seed is different as for what it requires for germination. Most important to all for germination is moisture. As for spacing, carrots are good at about two inches...and should not be in flats, but broccoli should be sown in flats then planted about 18" apart...This is the kind of detail I am looking for.
