I'm sharing my foolproof method to starting finicky warm season seeds  from the nightshade family including peppers, tomato, and eggplant.    Indoor seeds starting gives you control to create the micro-climate  these seeds need to thrive. 
This practice will help extend your growing  season, and in the long run, you can save money by no longer buying  expensive adult plants year after year.   
The tools you need to start these seeds includes a heat mat, deep  containers that can hold water, a lid for your container or plastic wrap  , 4” landscape pots, fully hydrated soil-less medium, garden marker,  outdoor labels, and of course, seeds. It’s a good idea to set up your  grow light in advance because you’ll need this ready about a week after  starting seeds.
