 Seedlings: courtesy Morguefile  Many of our food pictures we shoot are taken with food we grow. Planting a vegetable garden has its rewards, but seedlings are sensitive and easy prey to insects and weather. It is often easier and more productive if seeds are started in a seed starter tray, then transplanted outdoors when conditions are right for the seedlings. If you've never sown seeds
