Starting veggies from seeds

So how many of you start your own vegetables from seeds? I usually start my warm weather plants in March in seed trays and use grow lights. It's been a long, cold winter here and I'm ready to get my hands dirty!

I managed to plant the first seeds of 2009 yesterday (celery) and can't wait to get the rest of them going at the end of the month.

I try to grow from seeds. Usually I have good luck. However, Haven't been successful with green beans yet here in NC.

Always start my own plants. My mother found by experimenting (back in the 70's) that using a liquid kelp extract in the water prevents disease from hitting the seedlings. So I always use that and some nitrogen in the water, usually some calcium nitrate. With some peat based seed starting mix from a nursery supply nearby. Always get nice healthy plants.
