Note – the first two sources are a bit dated, but will give you the basics.
Start by reading my free Butterfly Gardening Book.
2nd – Watch my Butterfly Gardening Youtube video.
3. Start thinking about a location.
Think small, sunshine and water.
I’ve got a shop light I’m giving away for seed starting.
If you’re interested email butterflygardeningorg@gmail.com
If you are interested in starting your own seeds inside, here is my latest light recommendation.

Potting Mix Recommendation
The “Pros” use Pro-Mix – it’s on sale right now at Menards.
You will also need to add slow release fertilizer – I use Osmocote Plus.
According to one video, the Myco will last up to two years.
