Utter Novice... Need Help on Germination

[MeEasy]

Hi @Pyrate welcome to the neighborhood, I had this bookmarked it has some good stuff on germinating

What to do after germination

I am looking for what everyone has found to be the best way to successfully germinate and plant auto seeds. I have read germinate in water then plant directly into its final home but have also read sow directly in soil or germinate in water then plant in a 3-4” pot then when it has some roots plant in final home. About to start my first grow and any help would be great. Is bush doctor coco loco good for seeds or do I need happy frog? Thanks
