At my home depot they have a smaller bag of "seed starter". Come in a resealable bag.
but it has no nutes at all. I think i threw it away awhile back, ill look when i get home, but i think its what ur talking about

I see lots and lots use jiffy seed starter. They are sold at lowe's and comes with a mini greenhouse for starting seeds. I am very skeptical about how to germinate also, just like you. Have failed a few times but the Jiffy is great. Get it man, it's cheap and sold at lowe's and works!

IMO best way to germinate is just drop the seed in a glass of distilled water. You can check on it whenever u like without disturbing it. And i just started growing about 2 years ago, but so far i have 100% success rate on this method

I soak seeds for 24hrs then plant directly into the same medium you intend to use if your final pot (I use Canna professional or Canna Bio Terra if im going organic). Starting in seedling pots then transplanting seems to make autos shorter and bushier, not altogether a bad thing in my opinion. You can use Coco if you really dont want any nutes at the start.

What autos have you got? Im on Buddha Red Dwarf and Lowryder #2, Red Drawrfs by far the more impressive.
