      I have a lit magnifying lamp with weighted stand. Works well to get light on soil blocks to see seeds & place them. I bought it for my husband to tie flies for fly fishing, but I borrow it. Haha

    The Grinch side grin 😂😂😂 Serena from You Can’t Eat the Grass has THE BEST method for sowing snaps! Sprinkle them over the soil and then when they’re still super tiny, carefully prick them out and transplant. I tried it one year and they did great and I will never go back to trying to sow tiny individual seeds 😂

Love that you don't go all high end with your sowing method; accessible to all...no fancy equipment needed. And BTW, keep singing, puts a smile on my face. 😺

  • @thedirtygardener
    @thedirtygardener 6 месяцев назад +2

    The swift blocker was a game changer for me this year. I was able to rapidly make all the soil blocks I needed and my hands weren’t killing me when I was finished. I blocked them onto extra long trays and then used a pancake flipper to lift up however many I needed at a time.

    First of all, impressed your mom could do snap seeds without glasses on. Does she wear contacts? She has a fun personality and I see where you get your personality from. Not afraid to be silly, sing, etc. Love your relationship. Have you ever tried winter sowing your snaps? I do these exclusively outdoors now because they're such pains. Works great!

    You might want to ask about ability to lift, stoop, get dirty, be around fertilizers, following directions, andgardening experience (which all can be learned). Edited to add that most electric companies charge a premium for electric from 4pm - 9pm, so you might want to adjust your light timers.

  • @Sutatsa21
    @Sutatsa21 6 месяцев назад +2

    Loving your videos! I am obsessed with flowers atm! I heard from other sources that vermiculite lets light through, so I am using it for seeds that need light to germinate. So far it seems to be working. Always great to see all experiences of how to grow from seed! Looking forward to a seedling update ☺️

    • @FlowerHillFarm
      @FlowerHillFarm  6 месяцев назад +3

      It definitely depends on how fine the vermic is and how thickly you put it on! Mine is very fine and I load it on for dark loving seeds. I've also used it sparingly on lisianthus and other seeds that need light and that's worked great! :)

    I need to start seeds too! Last year and this year have been a bust. Last year I was fostering some puppies that dragged all my seed trays off the table and chewed them up 🙄 and we were also training for a bike ride so time was limited. This year hasn't started off good either. Been gone 3 out of the past 4 weeks out of town and the seeds sprouted but didn't have sunlight for a couple days. Ugh....sometimes it's a good year and sometimes it's not.

  • @vivherman2296

Keep it real..and just let us tag along with you! So glad you can get some help in there... you gotta have a life, too, ya know. I think it'll make a big difference for you. I really don't know how you keep things straight..my brain would explode! Yay! I got C. Chiminee, too.

    Get a LED floor lamp. They're released small and they have a flexible head. They're less than 30 bucks. They work great and you can point them directly over the seeds. And it makes them show up even the tiniest ones because you can put it on Different types of color. It will make it so you can see a black lavender seed on black soil. This might help your mom so she doesn't lose track😊
