    Good video. FYI to everyone who does home gardening, you CANNOT BUY GMO seeds. When you see seed packets saying non GMO, it is just a marketing tactic. All seeds sold to the general public are non GMO. And only some farmers are able to buy GMO seeds if they wish.

    I can’t wait to come to the plant sale! I started all of my own plants for the first time this year, and then got very sick with my pregnancy they all died from neglect. I was very sad at first but not all is lost for this gardening season, thank goodness for the gardeners like you. 💜

    Jill, I just potted up my Dollar Tree stacker and wanted to make sure you knew that the little “trays” on the bottom of the three pots can be popped off to reveal predrilled drain holes. This will help tremendously when you water and the plants will not drown! I love it! it is stacked 9 high and I have strawberries planted in it. Thanks for all the great info and inspiration! Have a great day!

      I thought I was buying a full size stacker planter on Amazon and when it arrived I thought wow I didn’t realize how small those vertical planters are. They look so much bigger online. Fast forward a month and I see the same exact stacker at the dollar store. I paid A LOT more than $1.00 per stacker. Lesson learned to always check the measurements of the items on Amazon and to shop the dollar store for planting items.😅

    This is my second year selling plant starts on Facebook market. Last year I was so nervous. This year I think I'm making more mistakes than last year! But when I do end up with a healthy, unique plant that took up way more time and $ than necessary. It's still rewarding to sell it for any amount and have a happy customer! I would love it our area had a plant sale. I would start one, except were moving soon.(video ends with an add for Bonnie plant starts 😅)

    I love how you are helping your community. Question do you know in all states are there agriculture licences needed to sell basic organic starts, not certified but organic?
    I have hundreds started but don't want to cause a fuss if some sorta of license is required. Bonus like you I am donating my starts to family, friends and community gardens but maybe next year will opt for selling. Thanks in advance for the advice!
    PS I was like you today...smelling my basil and was 🥰

    How fast do y’all normally sell out? We are driving from Hot Springs & I’m wondering if we should get there at 10:00. I’ve started most of my seeds. Had over 50 tomato starts then it froze a few days last week & I lost about half of them. So now I need to buy some.

    I love your channel and I am not being negative but GMO seeds are not avaliable to home gardners. GMO seeds are only available now for agricultural crop seeds. These would include corn and soybeans, canola and sugar beets. Everyone educate yourselves.

    • @lifewithlaceylu9266
      @lifewithlaceylu9266 3 года назад

      There's been many a lawsuit that have put good farmers out of buisness because the big farm seeds blow into small farms fields. It IS possible to have GMO seeds mixed in sadly.
