I am new to starting seeds so I am wondering if anyone in the forum
has experience making their own seed starter mix, and if it has worked

seedlings got a taste of the soil they will actually be growing in,
they might do better, so I am not necessarily trying to save money;
I'm only going to start 2 or 3 dozen plants anyway - mostly tomatoes
and peppers.

I just use sifted compost that was once hot.
