I routinely use a peat moss based seed starting mix. For the first two weeks I do not add a single Amendment just moistened mix and the seed. The seeds cotyledons have enough nutrients in them to feed for the first 2 weeks. After transplant they get some small amount of fertilizer and a little bit of calcium.
