Wow! Great video. My 7 year old and I just planted a tray full of grape tomatoes, peppers and flowers. Thanks so much!!
That is awesome!
FINALLY a fellow North Carolinian who can help me get this process started! God Bless you sir!
I have never watched one of your videos before and I am less then 2 minutes into this one and I am already absolutely loving your personality! Clicking the subscribe button before I resume the rest of this video. Thanks!
Welcome aboard!
I am getting my first seed tray started today. I discovered that apparently not all seed trays are the same. The plastic containers that sit down in the larger tray of what I bought are quite a bit smaller than the planting pellets I bought. I discarded the plastic containers and just used the larger tray and put the pellets in it. I guess we will see how well this works. Thanks for your video.
Love your sense of humor! First time watching your channel. Really enjoyed it!
Welcome aboard!
If i want more seeds planted, i usualy pole 3 holes around the jiffy and 1 in a middle, make 4 plants, i can always split the jiffy when replanting... good advice, works well
Thanks for sharing
I love that you plant for the bees and butterflies! You just won a subscriber just for that! Thank you!!!
I should be videotaping me doing my little garden for the first time from your video. I’m a city girl from Detroit trying to do a farming gig in my kitchen lol
1:26 'use warm tap water'
20 seconds later...
1:46 'Don't use tap water'
2:51 'I wanna make it easy for ya'
LOL!!!!!
Since he is a farmer, I'm guessing he has well water, not city water which is chlorine treated. I think he realised this halfway through his discussion lol. So for him, and any others in the country, well water should be fine if it's drinkable, but city dwellers would do best with distilled water.
@@rubylady7126 Not all city water uses chlorine. My local water is disinfected with chloramine which is safe for plants, seeds, and clones most of the time, or can easily be removed by boiling. I wrote a boring textbook of a comment with more information on the chemical and the process of purifying it elsewhere in this comment section because I don't think it's common knowledge that chloramine is used in many modern city water supplies. Not too long ago, the assumption that all public water supplies have chlorine would have been a safe bet. I just hope the information helps someone! Running out to buy distilled water isn't as easy of an alternative for me as I'm sure it isn't so easy for a lot of people who deal with transportation problems or disabilities such as myself (I'm not that old, but I have Gout and RA so getting around is very challenging for me). Aside from the chlorine issue, this is a fantastic video for help using these little peat pellets! I love Jiffy, myself.
@@rubylady7126 damnn..I just realized why everything I have dies
@@rubylady7126 holy shit, I just moved into the country, always been in town. I started a big garden for my first garden and didn't think about the fact my well water is different than city water. Thanks for the much appreciated comment on this video lol. Much love from Nebraska ✌❤😊
Don't expect too much from a guy named Stoney ;-)
me and my wife also start our small garden plants indoors a month-and-a-half before planting season here in South Carolina we start tomato plants big boys cherry tomatoes and beefsteak tomatoes we also start red yellow and green bell peppers in the indoor planters you're doing a great job Josh keep up the good videos we really enjoy watching them..
Amen
I grew up with a farmers almanac in my home, and yes planting with the moon is key, my mother always planted with the moon. she always said 'the moon governs the earth.' She even clip our hair according to the moon.😀
Nice thats awesome! Thanks for watching! Good to have folks like you on the channel...hope you subscribed!
Stoney Ridge Farmer Of course I did subscribe.
I also tried following your method to plant seedlings using the jiffy.. lolololol I look forward to see what will happen.
Stoney Ridge Farmer You're the first planter so far that I have heard recommend the Farmers Almanac.
"We dont plant potatoes" 🤣🤣🤣

Very thorough! You're like the living 'Jiffy Greenhouse For Dummies'. Thanks!
Yep....I saw other folks boring videos and had to fix it! Thanks!
Lmbo!!!! This is a very fun and informative video! I do have question...have you ever planted morning glory seeds in the Jiffy greenhouse? If so I was wondering how many seads do you put in each one Or how many seats would you recommend putting in each one because morning glory seeds are a little bit bigger

1:26 we are gonna take warm tap water... 20 second later at 1:46 guys use distilled water dont use your tap water...
Hello there. We watched this last year and are back to watch it again! Thanks for making it
Found your video very useful during the Quarantine, thank you !!! Today I’ll be growing peas lol.
You’re hilarious! Love the comedy to learning. Not one of those boring mundane vids that lull you to sleep. Tar Heel for life!
This is absolutely fabulous. Super clear and also super entertaining, hahaha! Thanks for your energy :)
Thank you for your video. We watched it before so we knew what to do. So it was very helpful.
"There's a lot going on, and I forget stuff."
I feel your pain lol
You a funny fella! Good video I got me some of the jiffy peat pellets in a little greenhouse kit and now I know how to use 'em the right way. Thanks!👍👌😎😁😁
I know nothing about plants but this guy makes me laugh definitely subscribing 😂
Love your video! Will look for more! You are entertaining and educational. A good mix and I have a background in video production so I’m critical!😊
Thanks again!
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you ! ... Now I'm going to plant Mary Jane :-)
Glad to help ya!
starting seeds outdoors...its last week in April San Diego..50s nights 60s to 70s days.... The advice I got from the garden center was to open the top days, water once a day...then they agreed with me to close the cover nights and cover with a folded over blanket...
the cover fogs over during the day if I don't take it off!!
Loved it! I’m an apartment dweller but will be starting a little garden on my balcony. Love watching things grow from seed.
Do it shelves are empty.
Hi, This is the most interesting gardening video I had ever seen till date. I like the way you did the video with lots of fun. Hope to see more videos. Thank you. "SUBSCRIBED".
Glad to have ya! Thanks for the complement
josh
We don't get much snow here i am out but let winter bring lots of rain. I have a few gallons of rain water waiting got my seed starts!!
This is my fave part. I absolutely love the jiffy greenhouse kits. However I struggle after this step. My herbs and flowers grow great in the greenhouse but once I remove they usually die. Any advice? I’m pretty sure overwatering is partially the cause. What other advice do you have for the next steps after sprouting?
sprout...let them grow...transplant to a larger container like dixie cup...let them grow and go easy on that water for sure. Get yourself a soil moisture meter like this one from my amazon page: amzn.to/3RVSaab
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer ok awesome! Thank you so much!!
Thank you great video! Going to go "big" on my garden this year and this video was very informative.
For better result on seed in packets. They to need be rehydrated Add a 1 table spoon Hydrogen peroxide to 1 cup of distilled water.Soak about 20 mins. You will have to fish out them. I plant 3 seed per pod. Add half & half 1 pt peroxide to 1pt warm distilled water and soak your pods .For a gallon just double it.
Thank you for the helpful video! I'm new to gardening and need all the help I can get!
More to come soon...for this year's garden!
this vid was so awesome and helpful! Thanks!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Do you have issues with the netting around the peat not disintegrating? I have never tried them, but that is one of their cons people list. Other than that I am ready to try these!!
it doesn't break down right away...but over a season or two in the garden they break down...not an issue at all...pull them up in fall and put them in the compost heap👍
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer thank you! :)
Thanks for posting! I bought my first Jiffy seed starter and appreciate the walkthrough!
Thank you so much for the great Info. I loved the pencil sharpener and pocket knife 🤣
Thank you. Very thorough ☺. Most people don't share the knowledge. I have a pencil sharpener, but that's because I'm back in school ☺. New to your channel and I just subscribe thank you. My family and I became vegans and fruits and herbs is a major part of our diet. I'm getting tired of buying fruits and herbs when i can grow it ☺
just picked up the 2018 because of this video a bit late but ill get 2019s when it comes out thanks for the advice
I am just now getting my seeds going. I am using peat pellets for the first time. Do I water them after the initial warm water that makes them expand? If they need watered do you use a mister or put water directly in the tray like when expanding? I really appreciate it. Happy Gardening
Debra, so only use warm water for the first expansion of the seeds. Don't put your seeds in until the temp drops to around 80 degrees....you won't need to water for quite some time...leave the cover on for a day..then take it off for an hour or two to let them breath...once they sprout out...leave the cover off after about 4 days of growth and thinning down to one seedling per pellet. You'll know when they need water...you need to let air circulate on them and if you overwater you'll get mildew or fungus....let them breath after they have sprouted...you can use a mister or just pour into the tray...be careful if you over water just leave them open and let a small fan gently blow on them..it will evaporate. DONT OVER WATER! Thats the biggest tip I can give you. Get a tiny pair of scisors from a nail trimming kit and thin them about 3 days after germination...hope this helps ya
Best gardening content i've ever seen! Thanks for the great vids and keep up the awesome work!
Lol Thanks Klaxx
I bought my house with a small sun room but have no idea how to utilize it in the winter. Can I grow things using this system in my unheated sun room, in February, like you? I'd love to start sowing seeds much earlier than before where I'd wait for the last frost to begin. I now have 4 big window boxes I have to fill with flowers and realized, once I got them that they are huge and will be extremely expensive to fill unless I learn to grow my own flowers. Any tips would be GREAT! Oh and do you just plant that whole pod in the ground and how do you know when to put it in the ground? Thanks for any and all advice!
This video got me to subscribe. He reminds me of Will Forte! Definitely looking for fun but educational gardening videos. This popped right up when searching on Google. Cant wait to see more!
Welcome to the channel Melissa! Glad to have ya
Thankyou for this! Who would of thought using these would be complicated lol.
I have a really stupid question though - do you cover the seed up with a bit of soil once it's placed in the hole? Or do you leave it exposed in the hole?
Push some of the "peat" you moved over to plant the seed back on top of the hole. 😊
Love ❤️ Love ❤️ Love ❤️ your videos! You crack me up 🤣. Anyway ty for the lessons, starting my Jiffy ( flowers 🌸) just like you
Thank you 😊 Great information at a fast & fun pace 😊
Thanks!
Use melted and warmed snow for your plants. works great!
Excellent and very informative video. After the 2/3 week incubation period, are the seedlings ready to planted outside?
I enjoyed your videos. I already knew some of the stuff you shared and I learned a few things too. I've been trying my hand at Joshua trees, baobab trees, Jacaranda and flame trees. Do you have any knowledge of any of these? I would appreciate any feedback on any of these if possible! Thanks for sharing!
Dude thanks for the tips. We are starting this today 👍
Stay Stoney 💨
Happy I found your channel! Thanks for all the great tips!!!!
I'm glad to have ya here Donna....please share this with your friends...it's good times! I'm always into something different on the farm here!
You're hilarious man! Thanks for the informative and entertaining video 👌
Glad you enjoyed!
Yes be happy! Flowers are happiness!
I bought this kit to germinate a lot of American sycamore seeds. Do you think it'll work for that as well? I've never used this kit nor have I ever germinated American sycamore seeds.
no idea...also no idea why you'd want those lol.....fyi...you probably can order seedlings online...but hey..it's totally worth a try! Go for it!
That was great and very entertaining! I just started indoor gardening
Butterfly weed are early bloom and will die off in July. But will come back next year. It is the first of my flowers to show.
Oh my! I like you!! Thanks for the Info. However I already did my jiffy plant kit and I messed it up because I did not use warm water eek! First time I’m doing seedlings 🌱 so not sure if it will work out or not.
Informative and humourous 🤣🤣 Love it 💜🙏🌌
I'm starting a garden this year thanks,great video.
This is off the subject, but it looks like you have the same kitchen cabinets as me. Lol. All seriousness, thanks for the video. Starting some seeds today for my first RDWC grow. Very nervous.
Thanks dude. I got those little dirt things and was t sure what to do with it. 😋
Thank you for explaining this, but thank you MORE for a enjoyable getaway to NC❤️
I'm needing info about the outside temp for starting seeds. I'm in Tulsa, OK and we're in agricultural zone 7a-7b. The nights are still quite coolish. I'm afraid to start my seed plugs now because of the cold night temperature.
I don't have a grow light. Don't have a heating mat for the seed trays. Can you give me some guidance about how to proceed? Like, wait until day temps are in the low 70's and the night temps are 60-ish. I don't want to get started wrong. Thanks for your help.
I start my seeds inside typically on a table in the kitchen...if it gets much below 45 at night I bring them inside
11:22 yes sir that’s what it’s all about. Great vid
"Gods gonna make these things right" LOL you're awesome
Can I set them on my windowsill after I planted them ?? Cause that’s what I’ve been doing 😩 PLEASE HELP
My man had lockdown energy before it was mainstream. 😂
First time planter here. I have a question about adding more than one type of veggie plant in thr same greenhouse kit. Is that ok?
Hey so what is your thought on take this seed starting trey and putting it in a greenhouse? V/s in a sunny spot in your house?
Don't smoke that salvia I thought I was a coffee table.. and another time I almost fell into a camp fire. Bad stuff 😂
The fertilizer packet, do I add it initially to the 1/2 gallon water starter or is it to be used in a water diluted spritzer spray bottle for later use?
Do you have to keep watering the peat moss pods till your seeds sprout?
Nope...water once...when they sprout..uncover them and dont water until they start getting light brown..overwatering is what starts fungus growing...place in a well ventilated area. I have a newer video done this year that's a little more informative
Good video.
We require half gallon hot water (100-110 degree) for 72 peat pellets. Is it correct?
What type if water require?
You said your plants didnt produce earlier but did you get more produce off the ones you started earlier
Years ago I used to work my butt off planting the garden on Jan 1st every year...I'd start my plants indoors and move them out....plants grow based on the sunlight and soil temps...I was just working my butt off to achieve the same result....so the question you have to ask yourself...is planting your seeds 4 months early and fussing with it worth having tomatoes 2 weeks earlier?
New subscriber! Your videos are so helpful!!! Thanks!
I was I need of this exact video thanks for your helpful video
You are very welcome...there was a need on youtube for sure...nobody made it fun!
That looks a lot easier than using yogurt cups.
LOL Your crazy, but very entertaining.. I am wanting to use mine to start my kale, spinach, and chives.. Our last frost is usually around May 9th, so I need to back up 8-10 wks from there.
4 minutes I was watching this til I realised he isn’t germinating weed
dont matter weed or no weed.. all seeds germinate the same way..
This method works very well for mile high seeds. I had to cull my garden to remain within legal limits. So sad to kill them.
😃
You just saved me 4mins👍
@@critical9862 No it’s a good video for that
Hey, been awhile, can I do this with grow lamps, a heating pad and the lid to germinate or do you suggest I remove the lid? I've found the specialized heating pad speeds germination. 'd remove the lid once germinated of course. Would there be any benefit to moving them outside in the day when I already use quality grow lamps? Thanks much
I'm propagating chilli and pepper seeds in the peat pucks at the moment, but they absolutely reek of alcohol and they're not sprouting. No idea what I've done wrong! 😭😭 They're being rehomed to the warmest room in the house in case that helps. Any advice?
Ok I need some help! I started my corn and Bush beans in jiffy pellets...(this is my first time) and had some delay in getting my garden ready, long story short, the roots of my corn and beans grew into each others pellets!!! So now I'm transplanting them into the biodegradable pots, they were a twisted up mess!!!! I wanted them planted before now but it didnt happen so I'm really REALLY HOPING I didnt make them too mad, i also added some root booster to all of them but the back of the bottle says a half of a cap per gallon of water and also says vegetable take 1 cup! Yes 1 CUP! IS THAT PER PLANT??? that just sounds like way too much so i just divided it up and gave each one enough to make the soil moist, i made a gallon and just distributed it that way i hope they all got enough.... do you think my little plants will make it? Oh, I also was very careful and all of my plants had their longest roots when I transplanted them I do feel a little better about that
I have a dilemma as a new gardener. I just seeded Cucumbers and Goji's a week ago under grow lights before I learned from you not to do it too early from last frost date. Do you have any suggestions on how to keep the sprouts going "alive" till planting outdoors?
Wow man,Thanks for helpful tips for how to use Jiffy pods!I bet subscribing was worth it😄
Can you do carrot seeds in jiffy peat pellets or in a medium size planter ?
I'd just plant them in your raised bed or garden
You saved the planet
hey stoney ridge farmer how successful were your butterfly weed i am planning on doing the same with 500 seeds thanks
Do you cover it with soil after? I always thought you have to cover your seeds after planting.
Cool thanks dude. My first year.
Nicely done and simple instructions. Thanks.
glad you liked it ...
Loved this video! Best of luck to your channel!
What are your thoughts on a seedling (controlled) heating mat?
Those are sum kinda farmers hands there buddy. Just saying enjoy the Farm Live there farmer
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and information. Cheers
Yes sir...you are very welcome
You have great character. A farmer Jim Carrey type. Thanks for sharing your ever so helpful tips.
Hey, I don’t know much about these things, all I have to plant at the moment is Morning Glory flowers, are those ok to plant in these? Or should I go to the store and get something else?
Is there a mesh or something holding the pods in that shape? Do you have to remove it before transplanting? I’m hoping to do impatiens this weekend.
There is a mesh. It is supposed to biodegrade but I found that it didn't for me. I had some tomato and jalopeno sprouts that I put into a larger container and the mesh was still there with no roots growing past it.
