Started my first batch of giant amaranth seedlings (Amaranthus australis) from the USDA. I used a clear plastic lid from a yogurt top. I placed a very thin layer of soil at the bottom (about as thick as a nickel). I put some enough water in so the soil was very wet. I soaked the seeds (approximately 50 seeds) for a half hour in another plastic container. I removed the seeds from the container and surface sowed them onto the soil. I put another yogurt lid on top and placed it on a heat mat with under a grow light.
