    I wouldn't sterilize it, but if you ever do need to sterilize, like if you are bringing outdoor soil inside, or using soil from a commercial grower that has been stored outside, I just put in the biggest pot I have for boiling pasta, and put it in the oven at 180 degrees for an hour. Don't go over 190 degrees or you are going to be killing all kinds of things you want.
     
    I use jiffy mix for pot, but for my tomatoes that I start in solo cups I use Epsoma Seed starter. And never sterilize  What mix are you using?
