Materials Needed
 1. Cookie sheet
 2 .Two white felt pieces the inside size of the  cookie   sheet.
 3. Two 1/4  inch wood slats x the size of the width of the pan plus a
     little to overhang.
 4. A piece of glass the size of the pan , to fit over the wooden slats .
 5. Several 8 inch peat pots for transplanting seedlings.
 6 . Good potting soil to fill the 8" pots
 7 . Miracle grow to fertilize the seedlings

Instruction
 1. Place one felt piece on the cookie sheet.
 2 . Place one seed in the middle of every  square inch  across and down.
 3 . Place the second sheet of felt over  the seeds and first sheet of felt.
 4 . Slightly warm a pint of water, just enough to take the chill away.
 5 . Pour the water over the felt sheets and seeds or into the cookie sheet, do this slowly as not to disturb the seeds. Water until both sheets are completely soaked .
 6. Place one wood slat on one end over the lips or edge of the  cookie pan place the other wood slate on the opposite end.
 7 . Place the glass over the wood slats this will create space between the seeds and the glass and help circulate fresh air and not over heat the  seeds. The temperature should be between 75/90 degrees 85° is ideal
 8 . Place your "Test Greenhouse" in a warm,  shaded sunny window . You must check the moisture content from time to time. Never allow the felt to dry out. Don't allow the sun to over heat  the greenhouse.  A small  temp gage should take care of this problem or remove the greenhouse  to a cooler spot.
 9 . The seeds should appear in 4/7 days in some cases depending on the variety it will take longer 7/42 days.
10 .When the embryo breaks though the outer coating, after the roots start invading the felt take scissors and cut the felt around the seedling roots and all and remove the seedling from this environment. The root will penetrate the felt when transplanted.
11 . Transplant the seedling to the  8"  peat pots.
12 . When the seedling has grown both true leaves and all frost has endedplant in the permanent place in the gourdpatch.

May the "Gourdspirits " give you the patience and shower you with "Gourdglow"  for this new growing season.
