growing seeds

Question

Over the years I have planted seeds indoors so I can have a nice potted plant area in my backyard. Every single time I’ve tried to do this (both flowers and vegetables) they sprout, grow a few inches, then die off. What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

This is called damping off. This article will help you correct it:
