    I have now taken the plunge and started up a Patreon space here / greensideup This gives a little more Green Side Up content to those who wish to help,support or give back to me. It will be slightly different to the content here on my channel in that it will be an informal style with a warts and all approach, its me, but from a different angle.

    Just ready to pot on my tomato seedlings. I heard you talk about this on the Potty Mouth Gardening Club - even listened to it twice! So this video has really helped me - I will be putting my tomato seedlings in root trainer pots now!

    HI Steve. I pot on stright into bigger pots simply because I have the space to do so. I find the roots get away just fine and not having to repot several times makes for a sturdier plant come planting out. I would only pot on into ever increasingly sized pots if I was short on space. You could just plant nt the ground afterall if conditions were right. Not havving a pop BTW just a different approach - love the channel.

      Yeh I do the same, you just have to be a bit more careful with watering, so like he mentions you don't drown them

    Great video as usual :). I pot on like this and my tomatoes for instance, go from the tray to a 7cm, then a 9cm and if they still need too, they can go in an 11cm pot. Strengthens the stems so much by burying them deep. Some i had last year, the stalks were over an inch thick :)

    Hi steve I understand what you saying about the parsnip plants and I would agree for any other plants but never parsnip or carrots that plant should go straight into ground as they are hardy I only ever sow straight into ground.

    I potted some sturdy tomato seedlings into the next size up yesterday, however I ran out of small pots so had to go larger for some , it will be interesting to see which come out best, I did have rather a lot of plants this year as I’m hoping to beat the shortages .

    Hi Steve, thanks for another great video. I can see you are using containerwise trays, could you be so kind as to let us know what size trays they are that you move up from each time please? I have started using containerwise trays this year but don’t have the full range yet. Cheers

  • @markshaw5835

    Hi Steve,
    Please could you advise me, l sowed my seeds on the 16 Feb and l potted them onto small pots, l have had to do it all in doors due to mice eating everything in my greenhouse! My seedlings have really not grown since potting on, a few of them are just getting there true leaves but they are minuscule it doesn’t help l am North facing, any advice would be appreciated, my seedlings are also very leggy and l planted them deeper in the pot, lm hoping l haven’t lost everything 😢
    Great video thank you 🙏🌺

    Those module trays you are using look great, much nicer than the flimsy ones I've got. Do you have an affiliate link for them?

    • @SethCochran1
      @SethCochran1 Год назад

      Yes, I’m interested in where you got the trays. Containerwise? Which ones are you using??

  • @tomex
    @tomex Год назад

    Hi Steve. What seed trays are you using? Are they from Containerwise? I'm sick of those cheap plastic trays that crack after first use. Also doing it this way (potting up) you use less compost that's a good too. :)
