A Little Sun
Once your seeds sprout and grow a bit, it is important to being slowly exposing them to the outdoors. I've been setting mine outside in the sun for at least a couple hours each afternoon this week. I only put them out if the weather is warm and luckily this week it's been nice and sunny. I move them back into the house before the sun goes down.
Over the next couple weeks, I will gradually increase the amount of outdoor exposure time until they are outside all day. This helps seedlings get ready for transplanting to the garden and increases the likelihood that they will survive once they're in the ground.
