The weather is warming up, and we are planting more greenhouses! After a quick vacation to Crazy Creek Hot Pools, we are back to the work of getting all of our cold weather loving seedlings planted into the greenhouses. And we have a lot of lisianthus to plant - and not very much space. You will never believe how many I cram into 2 greenhouse beds. And the extras don't go to waste - we are potting them up to sell to local gardeners.

Serena, please get yourself a wooden dibber to poke the holes into the ground. You will have serious arthritis in your fingers if you continue like this. Cheers and all the best for all your beautiful flowers!!! I would buy a Lisianthus tray in a heartbeat. Can't find them anywhere here in Germany. 😞
Yes those ones that do multiple holes at a time.
Ian needs to make you a dibble board so you can make your hole 60 or so holes at one time. Doing it all by yourself that could give you more time to plant other things or rest. A board with wine corks or wooden stobs screwed to it.
The lissies are a weird one, they are getting planting a million times tighter then any of our other plants ever are. But the plugs are also perfectly the size of my finger, lol, so it works
Детки ,какие молодцы, помогают папе с мамой.
Замечательная семья!!!🇷🇺❤️🇷🇺
I love watching you and your whole family work together as a team. I love how you allow the kids to be hands on . I also enjoy seeing how much your husband enjoys your kittys.
Such clever use of container lids! Necessity is the mother of invention!
This is like Laura from Garden Answer. I am SO invested in watching these flowers grow and your farm bloom. Ian’s got the vision and it sounds amazing. Now I want to grow 500 lisianthjs-run with it my dudes, le sigh. Fine, back to weeding my 65 tomatoes
Hard to believe I've been a keen subscriber long enough to see the start of yet another growing season! The clips of Sam were so adorable, I did actually tear up whilst eating my dinner 😭 Sending well-wishes for the farm and the fam, from the UK! Thanks for all the floral and food growing inspiration, my garden wouldn't be the powerhouse it is now without your awesome content 🥰
Wow, thank you!
I am amazed how little boy is potting up peonies I think, the very right way .. my mind is blown! here I am digging holes and overthinking ))
He's got the confidence, lol
I’d get a lot more done in my garden if someone bribed me with candy, too! 😂
Look at those ranuncs!! I can't wait to see them. So glad you guys can get a vacay day in with your kids. You all need that! You have great kids, and love the fact that they can be your hired help. Paid off with candy and a hug! Doesn't get any better. They will know what to do to help in the future. Although....I don't know how long the candy will work! Ha! I put 100 out in my small market field last week. Ranuncs- not kids......and hoping to get some flowers this time.around. You are a great team and work so hard. You have to love it to do that. It shows.
Love that you squeezed so many lisis in there 😂
Can’t wait to see the tunnel blooming, also such a good idea about pinching half to create a second succession!
You really are Super-hero planting machines ! You got it growing-on !! Look at all those seedlings !!!, awesome job mothering them and planting them in the garden !!. GOOD LUCK !
You need a wooden hole poker. Will save your fingers over time. 😊
omg, how lucky you are to catch those dogs! awww, i love how happy you all were to meet them! and i can totally relate :)
Shade cloth over those seedlings will prevent sunburn on the tender seedlings.
Ian, set the camera on a tripod & help plant.
Much quicker.
Didn't you see all the bed prep he did in the video? They divided the labor suited to who does what best
Love your one-day vacation! Hot springs?! Wow!
Lots of work, but the lisianthus greenhouse looks spectacular! Now to watch them grow!!!
So glad yall were able to take a short vacation! One thing I just realized I've never heard you talk about is how you, or if you, Fertilize your seedlings.
We don't really fertilize much. We put some powdered fertilizer into our soil mix, which lasts for about a month
Your working style is amazing. Your children are growing. They look like they enjoy being around others and being helpful your great Parents. Be proud Love your videos and your family. From Dartmouth Nova Scotia 🇨🇦🇨🇦proud. Keep smiling
Yas all the doggos and cats this episode - so cute!
Serena and Ian I thoroughly enjoyed this video and all the work you did with the lissys,love the kids ,so cute. That brake away you needed. Can hardly wait to see your farm in colour ❤
Wow!! Girl you got your hands full!! But all in so much fun, serenity, and love!❤ I loved how all your cats came running to you guys because they missed there family when you guys went on a vacation. I love how you treat your fur babbies!! It's so hard not to give them love especially when they are asking! Can't wait to see all them green babies to be full growth!!
Holey smokes that is a lot of seeds!! Glad you guys got a night away to relax, that pool looked amazing 🤩
What a good laugh 😅when you said ARE WE SELLING THESE THOUGHT WE WERE SAVING ALL FOR OUR SELF'S 😅😅😅❤❤
Those greens get me so excited to begin my planting. We still have snow and cold weather for another month maybe but it's getting there! Thank you for your spring energy!
Awesome!!! Now it's a great morning!!!
You guys make hard farm work look like fun!
Love lizieanthus!
Wowza, you are tough people ! We have many indoor and outdoor cats and know all about that. Good job sweet children !! GROW
Serena the flowers 🌻🌹 growing so nice,was nice guys you have a time for vacation all the best and take care.
went saturday (4-15-2023) to the detroit eastern market and found YARROW!! was $7.00 a small 4 inch pot...i was soo happy!!
Your son's giggles kill me! ❤️
I hope you have a great year, you work so hard..
I find that anemones and ranunculus take about a month to just develop roots. Therefore I can put them in the ground in early March and as long as there isn't a hard freeze (like below 15F) they will get a good head start and not take up space inside
looking good and wow, you live in a beautiful area of the country!
I have two almost 4 yr old St Bernards and I can verify that they are, in fact, huge. Each one weighs 200 lbs 💪🏻
So cute! 400lbs of cuddles
@@YouCantEatTheGrass I prefer to look at it as 400 lbs of slobber 🤣
My roadside flower wagon went up onto the road yesterday - yay! Located Campbell River on Vancouver Island, BC.
So exciting!
Looking good Serena all we need now is the heat. Not long now 🎉
I have my fingers crossed for the end of freezing nights soon
enjoy your time off!
You can do it!! I have faith in ya. 👍🏻
GREAT IDEA - get those kids to work!!! GOOD LIFE SKILLS - MAYBE - help them set a goal to buy something they want and pay them.....
You could save so much time on poking holes if you made something. My thought was a piece of ply wood (manageable size but width of your beds) with rods of some sort screwed to one side in the length (for depth) you need and use that. You can make multiple ones for your spacing needs.
I really enjoy all your videos! I LOVED this one
So nice to see you busy without being stressed!
Lol, its funny how after a few years spring chaos just feels like normal life - weather sucks, things are dying, thousands of seedlings = normal, lol
If I lived nearby I would totally buy a tray!
Sold, lol
Great job!
Love seeing the cats 🐈 where is your large black cat?
Yay yay yay congrats on such progress! I’m proud of you! ❤❤❤ I have a lot of website and photoshop skills. Let me know if you need photo work done for your site. Recently retired so would be glad to help! Can’t wait to see all those lizzies and ranucs bloom! 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 hug Em
Candy!!
I tried growing these flower. The seedlings were micrscopic for about 2 months. There is no way they're ever going to be big enough to plant in the ground and the yellow ball flower I seed germinated well but once I tried putting them outside they seem to have fried in the sun....I'm confused because they're a full sun plant. I'm sticking with zinnias and vegetables for this season.
I tried growing from seed once, and didn't get a single one. I figure the plants that I ordered in as plugs must be 3 months old
Your family is lovely 😊 had dogs for YEARS so getting away for a couple days was a hole thing ! Our garden is now on drip !! No dogs one cat drip and timer we go away for a week just fine .retirement 😊
It's hard to get away sometimes
I am amazed at how many plants that is. I’m dealing in dozens and you are dealing in thousands! Question… did you get rid of your chickens?
We got rid of them 2 years ago during a crazy heat wave. They were just too much work for no money, and our neighbours sell eggs, so we can easily get fresh eggs
What a difference a day makes... Yeayy success!
Things look great......where is Beau the orange cat?
Like the real life challenges and successes! No need to harden the plants? Straight from inside light/warmth to greenhouse?
We harden them off by putting the rack at the garage door and then opening it during the day - they get light and wind there. The tunnels also dilute the sun a little
@@YouCantEatTheGrass makes sense! Thanks so much for the info. I'll try to create similar conditions for my tomatoes then :).
I would like to see how to start herbs, flowers I just can't seem to get going, Matricaria "snowball".
You're getting the spring I had last year, weeks behind. 😔 At least you have the greenhouses.
Where can I find the "fleece" covers, I don't see them for sale in the lower mainland.
Hot springs ♨️♨️♨️ wonderful things when the cold seeps into the bones.
Tulips here are just about to bloom here, totally different spring here from last year.
Last week of JUNE was when we finally got temps above 10°C. Drove me nuts. Okanagan will warm up soon, it's rare to see colder temps after mid-April.
I would love to buy a few Lisianthis plants, but logistics puts that out of the question.
Okay, Im here to comment about the dogs in this video, so Ill watch and then comment later.
😂😂😂😂
Lol, they were cute
I’m in Washington and have asked local flower farmers if they grow ranunculus and lisianthus and no one grows them! I don’t think I saw any of them being sold at Pike Place Market either
I just wheel my racks right outside and water. As the sun moves across the sky, it hits everything. Hope you can work out how to save some time with the watering process.
They have grow lights on them, so no water on the racks. But soon we will be able to have a bunch of stuff outside
@@YouCantEatTheGrass Mine do, too. I thought it looked like you had trays under them. Maybe another chance for future improvements! :D
Where did you buy that water sprayer for the seedlings? I am from Canada.
did you put the shade cloth up?
Animals are cute in this vid
We were stoked on the dog truck, lol
Whats the dimensions of your cart? I would love to carry that many flats.
How did the ranunculus that you overwintered and stored turn out?
Calm before the storm😂😂😂
Lol, definitely. The tulips are getting closer every day
So good seeing kids getting involved and doing things outside. And hey if it takes a bit of candy to encourage...why not 🤣🤣🤣
How do you split your responsibilities? You've talked about the children helping. And I've gathered your husband, Ian, tends the market stall. But are you responsible for it most of it? It feels like it. Like you're the one editing the videos too, on top of planting, sowing, and now website designing...? Wow. Superwoman!
Are ranunculus perennials? Or Do they have to be lifted each year for winter?
I left a bed in place over the winter, but they didn't make it
Why dont they just use self-watering seedling trays?
I find my seedlings don't water as well bottom watered. But I might more with soil blocks
@@YouCantEatTheGrass oh, is that so? I was so befuddled by the additional effort (and probably mess?) of having to take them out, line them up, water and then put them back inside 😓 Hope the soil blocks help eliminate that waste in your process!
Do you have any more lisianthus for sale?
when do you think i can put my yarrow seedlings outside... in montreal canada 4 degrees at night with a cloth would it be ok? i need space lolll thanks
You just missed the earthquake in BC
Which Hot Springs was this?
Crazy creek hot pools, it's near revelstoke
What happened to Fattie cat?
I must have missed a live or video about this but what happened to Fatty? 😟🐈⬛
He died of old age. They mentioned it in the last live.
Less children please.
They are a huge part of every working farm. Must have.
Rude!
