Aaaah a nice long video! Folks just don't understand how valuable a good seedling video with plenty visuals really is. Totally guilty with trying to convince myself that I can remember a plant that I haven't tagged. Thanks Laura!
Coffee, plants, and the ever familiar “Hey guys, how’s it going.” Given the ever changing and chaos that social media seems to make feel constant, it’s lovely to have this joyful, kind, and plant-filled corner of the internet to start the day and listen to while I get going for the day. Have a blessed day Garden Answer peeps (and Lauren, Aaron, Benjamin, and Samantha) 🥰
Thanks so much for showing your “real life” patio furniture storage solution!! I often feel I’m failing because of the unwieldy state of my home/garage/garden. But it is helpful to see that life affects us all & sometimes we have to be creative with the space we have. -My hometown pastor used to quote Proverbs (14:4) “Where there are no oxen, the manger is clean, but abundant crops come by the strength of the ox.” So I guess when we consider the abundance of our harvest and all the other things we achieve, it makes sense that the space around us isn’t always picture perfect. And it’s worth it. 😊
I laughed when Laura gave us the timelines! When I sit to watch a video from Garden Answer I am usually ready for a break and Coffee and always watch the whole video and then want more. Keep up the great videos
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA When Laura reached the end of the bench where the fig and maple were, I thought “oh that’s it for this video!” Then I heard Laura said “…and on the OTHER side we have….”It’s like discovering a whole new season of Netflix show after you thought was the finale. Thanks Laura, I know your inspiration goes beyond the gardening community. Gardening is so good for the soul, it makes you believe in tomorrow, and all the hard work you put out not knowing what will come from them, but the faith and hope we instill in ourselves through the act of growing something is way more impactful than the plants themselves. You need to take a moment and just feel proud for what you and Aaron have accomplished.
Gotta have a sense of humor with this weather.. we’re just participants 🤣 so it’s an escape to watch these videos which offer promise of spring bounty!
The family owned greenhouse down the street from me just opened for the season. Within 2 minutes of talking to the employees, we were all swooning over Garden Answer. We learn so much from you Laura! Thank you and your family for being in our lives. We love you all.
Laura getting excited over the little baby bean is one of the most relatable gardener reactions. No matter how little or how much you grow, there’s always that excitement when the first baby veggies start emerging! 🥰
You’re so blessed to have such a green house. Ugh, I would live there. This year will be my second garden. I can’t believe it’s taken me all these years to find this amazing hobby. I think a greenhouse may be in my future. 🙏🏻🙌🏻
Then this one popped up 😃 You have definitely come into your style of recordings, gained wonderful confidence in who you are and what you represent, and yet you have kept the sweet signature marks and your sweet self through the years. Thank you for teaching me so much!
New Gardner in Ohio: watching you work with your seedlings 🌱. I realize how much I miss my seedlings. My cancer has returned, but I will be working with plants this year. Gardening just does feed my soul.
One of the best videos. Broke it up in three digestible sittings and not angry about it at all. U really covered a lot of things from bulbs to splitting to transplanting to germination troubleshooting, etc. So thannnk you.
Finally! I can show my husband that even Laura has a crap pile! Ha! Love the reality. Who has time to put everything away when we have plants to take care of.
Great video, been a subscriber for almost 2 years. I mostly grow veg and herbs but great to see all your plant life. I especially love to see companion plants and propagator attractors. Thanks.
This might be a basic level question, but you learn by asking :) Can you speak to the light requirements of the seedlings in the greenhouse vs. seedlings under grow lights. If your grow lights need to be close to the seedlings to prevent leggy growth, what prevents leggy growth in the greenhouse?
☕️Good day to all from Michigan where snow is forecasted for today, so a day off work and hot coffee is as welcome as Laura in the greenhouse! Just Beautiful plants and seedlings, Laura, I marvel at how you keep track of it all. Have a great new week everyone 🌷🌸🌼👏🏻
Hello From Texas - great information here, and the beauty that the Lord has provided for us is beyond any word I can express. Everything abundant, each one different.....what a marvel to see these things. Thank you for your time and hard work. Love to you and your family, and hugs to the little ones.
It's been a few days since I've watched a Garden Answer video and it feels like catching up with an old friend. I so appreciate and love your videos Laura! I know many like me enjoy drinking our coffee with you in the mornings. Cheers to a great day in the garden! (Or greenhouse 😊)
I love when Laura miss pronounces some of the plant names! It makes her feel more relatable to me, lol! There are sooo many weird ass names for plants and they are all spelled crazy! And then don’t even get me started on a plants real name, I think it’s Latin or something like that, but they are super hard words to spell and pronounce. I have the hardest time spelling and trying to pronounce all of the names. You gotta give her credit though, Laura has so many plants names to remember and most of the time, she spits them out like a boss!
Laura i have been enjoying your content for a couple years now. It has always called to mind my early days in my career that started at a greenhouse and garden center. I loved that job. Even still I went on in the direction of floral design. But now you have inspired me so much that I have made the decision after 25 years in floral to return to the greenhouse environment. I am so grateful & excited to get 'back to my roots'! Heres to playing in the dirt again! Thanks for your continued inspired content! All the best to you and your beautiful family! ♡
Myself and my wife absolutely adore you, and appreciate you sooo much. You have done more than you know helping us to get our gardens and beds in order. True blue fan.
We had snow for about 8 hours straight yesterday here in Southern Minnesota 4b, only a dusting actually stuck around until this morning, its all gone now but windy up to 50-60 mph now! Can't wait to get some of my plants out of my garage and into the ground!
I find it reassuring when you point out both successes and failures, as I have trouble growing lavender from seed, for example. These videos remind me to do some fertilizing and point out when it is time to pot up a tray of seedlings also. This is my first year with a small hobby greenhouse and I have been pleased with results so far, but there is always room for improvement! Thanks for doing such a great job of showing us techniques as well as sharing your enthusiam with us! Now if I just had the amount of space for more trays that you do.....
Thinning and Separating segment is EXCELLENT! I always struggle with that, afraid to damage them and always having to throw some out. Starting at 27:00 Thank you!
So happy you got Phomis. It's one of the most beautiful perennials, having year round interest. Must not be deadheaded until spring since the seedheads are spectacular and super strong, persisting through snow and wind.
I’m so glad to see an update of your seedlings! When I watched your planting videos, it got me so excited so I did mine. It’s so funny to hear you welcome the snow as we in 6b NW Pennsylvania are so over it! Your Easter video with your family yesterday was incredibly precious. Benjamin and Samantha are very well loved! Thank you for sharing!
I may be the only one but after Laura thin out and repotted the plants, I felt I could breathe easier while looking at the repotted plants and their forner abodes sitting side by side to each other. 😄
Laura, watching you take care of these plants is like sitting in on a Master Gardening Class. I know I speak for many, we learn soo much by watching your videos. Thanks for the knowledge. Looking forward to seeing how all these plants beautify your landscape.
absolutely love the seedling updates! Really makes me feel better to know everyone has different seedling results. As a brand new gardener, it's sometimes hard not to compare results with pros like garden workshop who have the whole process dialed in.
This gave me a great example on how to separate, thin, and potting up. I haven't grown much from seed and this helps to give me confidence to try more this year.
I was thinking the same thing! I was actually looking up different videos about thinning and separating when I remembered to check the GA channel and here it was!
So helpful to see the seedlings progress! I've been watching for many years and I finally have the time and confidence this year to start seeds indoors this year. I've learned so much from your seed successes and learning opportunities thank you!!
Love seeing all your seedlings!! It’s so nice to know ,even the Experts struggle sometimes, I Love how you keep it real and show the not so good, along the way ❤Thank you for your guidance, I’ve learned so much from you!
The seeds from Australia did no come from me, the Sturt Desert Pea plants hate to have there roots disturbed and only like to be watered from underneath. They are so suited to your environment as the only difference between where they grow in Australia and your climate is, our summers get hotter and your winters are colder, we don’t have the snow. Good luck with your seeds. I loved all your seedlings and hope mine look as good. Have a wonderful day x
I get the kangaroo paw plants from our nursery in the fall, but they always seem to dry up . Any suggestions? I’m in Phoenix Arizona, USA and we’re desert 🏜 here.
Underwatering them prevents a lot of diseases, before I moved house I never watered mine very often. This was because the area it was planted in the ground was well worked, so kept the plant roots moist but not wet. I also used to just run a slow hose (never had a drip system in) near it twice a week in the heat of the summer. Only once a month in the winter if no rain.
How can u send seeds,, without going thru agricultural inspection.... That's how invasive species get going ... UGH... Know u meant well but think again.... Sorry
Another RUclips channel has a much smaller hoop house. He was looking for a heating option for the winter. After trying a few things he purchased an inflatable hot tub. It provided the heat he needed and the recreation is a bonus.
Good start to the week with Laura. Burning bushes are a staple in our landscapes in my region of Missouri. They are beautiful in the fall, I highly recommend them. Also just FYI...I spray aphids with a mixture of Castle Soap and water. They usually never return.
Wow Russel Jerusalem Sage :) How interesting. You should call Russel by his full name when he’s between your legs. RUSELL JERUSALEM SAGE! 😂 Love the fig and the rosemary 🥰 and of course all the other baby beauties! Awesome tour 👏
I wish I was as plant savvy as Laura. She really inspires me. I’ve always wanted to grow my own vegetable and flower garden but have never had the opportunity. Watching her and her family gives me hope that I can get there one day. For right now I been having a two month dilemma on what kind of houseplant I should start my gardening adventures with. Complete beginner is a level above where I’m at lol. Any advice or suggestions anyone? They would be appreciated 🙂
I wish I could afford a green house. I use the winter sowing method and start seeds by bringing them in and out and covering everything when it’s going to be cold. Such a pain in the ass. Worth it though. 😅
Getting so close to the full swing of planting season, I cant wait! I'm so excited!!! To see how everything turns out on your end and to start on my end. Darn weather 🙄
It’s nice to see what hasn’t worked for you. Sometimes everything looks so perfect on RUclips, I feel like I’m the only one with dead plants, mistakes and bug damage.
Laura, this was a delicious video! Because of you, I'm now growing flowers from seed. I'm still very much an amateur but I've had some successes that are encouraging me to keep going! I'm also giving myself grace with the "failures." It's so cool to see how robust your seedings are. I appreciate learning about how and when you fertilize the seedings. Oh, and the ranunculus I learned how to pre-sprout from you came up! I have some beautiful yellow and pink ranunculus now :-)
I love to take care of my seedlings. I don't have much space and I always have too many plants but I don't care. When I'm repotting my seedlings I'm in my happy place. 🌱❤
How did I not know there was such a thing as double columbine? That’s incredible! There’s such a lot going on in your greenhouse. I’m overwhelmed just looking at it. But I’ll happily watch you do all the work.😂 ( I didn’t mean that to sound as rude as it came out). Thanks for the video today. I like the longer ones!!! 💚💚💚
What a refreshing morning to wake up to some much needed rain, my coffee and Laura. Laura you are such an inspiration. I look so forward to your videos everyday. I needed the motivation to get out and thin some of my starts. Of course seeing sweet Benjamin helping his mom was icing on the cake.
Good morning from Michigan to all Garden Answer friends. Snow is in our forecast today 🤪watching Laura’s video give’s me hope that warm weather is almost here, so we can enjoy gardening 👩🌾
Thank you for the update!! I was getting discouraged with some of my seedlings but seeing yours doing the same is encouraging. My cup and saucer vines last year (2 ) 4in pots grew over 15 feet tall!!!! They were massive!!!!! Love you videos!! ❤️🌸🌼🌺
Funny my place looks like that my family calls me “” a hoarder but when they need something or want something on the fly who do they call and come to me strange huh? Lol. Love you reality.
Good Morning! 🌞 The 2022 planting/growing season is going to get busier once the weather shapes up! Everything looks amazing in the greenhouse! I am anxious to get outside & start my season, I have started clean up in between weather systems! 😃🌧🌨🌩🌬🌞🌱🌷
That was so helpful and timely! I am just in the midst of tons of seedlings at different stages and You gave me the confidence and knowledge to properly and optimally care for them and move them forward. As a new gardener, you help shorten that ever painful learning curve. 😁 You intuitively know what we need and how to present it. I am so grateful for you and all you do every day. My garden is therapy, exercise, and sustenance all of which have become ESSENTIAL in my life. My plans, even work sometimes 😳, come in a distant second place 😅. ☮️ 💟
I've been...somewhat patiently...waiting for this video. No mention of the blue poppy, guessing it hasn't gone well.? Really looking forward to seeing the new gardens over this summer. Hope everyone has a wonderful week ahead, just the right amount of rain, no snow for me here on the shore in Maryland....YAY.
Laura that was a fab 40 minutes to spend with you. I’ve done a face mask, painted my nails and given myself a facial all whilst listening to your talk .. Sunday night done right in my opinion. Now I have a list of things to be getting on with in my own greenhouse tomorrow. Thank you x
Yep I did learn something, I repotted my small little seedlings way to early. Also I have a heart that just can’t thin the plants out but I have very little room and grow light space to separate them 😩. Oh the dilemmas that I have come into 😆. But this did help me a lot to understand the next stage I need to do. Thank you Laura!!
I had amazing luck with lavender starting seeds in the water jug Method. All of them came up strong. I planted 5 seeds per jug. It was so exciting since I’d like to plant a hedge of them it is such a cost effective way too
Hey Laura! Love watching your show everyday! You mentioned that you couldn't remember the name of the fig. You may already know this but when I can't remember the name of a plant, I open up the Google search engine, take a pic of the plant using the Google camera and it searches the internet for a matching plant. Works every time.😊
Thank you, Laura! Amazing overview of your flower seedlings: Thorough and full of useful information. Encouraged me (🇬🇧) to resow flowers that failed to germinate. Fantastic greenhouse!
Love the greenhouse tour ! I practically grew up in a greenhouse my parents had a retail business for 30+ years . Wondering if you run a circulating fan it would benefit your seedlings . Also so curious if your milk jug plantings made it ? I don’t have a greenhouse so keep experimenting with the milk jug method, I’m finding my cool weather perennials do the best . I had less then 50% success this season 🥴 🤷🏻
It looks to me like your seedlings are a success! But then anything you do is a success. I can’t wait to see all of the plants out in your garden and blooming. Exciting ❤️!
5:31 As a longtime gardener of mostly veggies (like 6 acres), I’m enjoying your videos while recuperating (and watching your cat using your newly filled trays as a litter box!) . One reason your trays aren’t sprouting evenly is the temp is much higher next to the walls of the greenhouse. If needed, you can rotate the trays but that’s a lot of work! Also, seeds are really important on where they are from. I think there’s only 10 or 12 seed companies growing their own seeds - the rest are purchased in bulk from giant seed companies, so you’ll get a huge variety of germ. On our farm I used to track what I seeded and from which company. I found one company (Baker Creek) was the worst germ overall; Fedco and Seeds From Italy were two of the best.
Love this video looking at Seed germ and Troubleshooting seedlings - really helps my seed growing journey seeing your seedlings, care schedule and processes when encountering any issues and potential causes! ❤️
Little baby beans are the CUTEST thing EVVVEERRRR! Everything is looking great! Ive had zero luck getting Asters to germ for the last 2 years. I just Transplanted my lisianthus, ranunculus & Snapdragons & am going to be transplanting a lot more soon like statice, strawflower, bells, cutflower kale, etc.
Wondering if you’ve ever considered doing a kids series on your channel (or second channel) where you explain some planting processes/sowing to a younger audience! I’m sowing some wildflower seeds with my students tomorrow for Earth Day! You have that sweet school teacher tone!!
At 32:36 all I can hear is the poor little seedlings scream as they are beheaded. And that dear Laura is why I have 27 dill, 24 sage and one full try of parsley! I can’t bring myself to do it, but I’m working on it. Thanks for the education on seed starting
Good morning! I will be separating seedlings today, hardest thing for me to watch was the cutting back of the columbine...lol. Over here, mid atlantic, i had to cover my citrus trees last night, and probably tonight also, cold snap coming through. But it is whacky spring weather. But I LOVE SPRING. Happy growing plants y'all!
Aaaah a nice long video! Folks just don't understand how valuable a good seedling video with plenty visuals really is. Totally guilty with trying to convince myself that I can remember a plant that I haven't tagged. Thanks Laura!

yes this is super fun
Yes!
Ahhh, Laura and my morning coffee ❤️. I’m in the process of putting together a small hobby greenhouse, you are my inspiration and my education.
You are fortunate. It would be LOVELY to have a little one but our wind makes it impossible in my condo complex….
I’m glad it waited until until today to snow!

Try moving all of the tables to the center and leave the outer wall areas as walk ways that should make heat and lighting even.
Laura getting excited over the little baby bean is one of the most relatable gardener reactions. No matter how little or how much you grow, there’s always that excitement when the first baby veggies start emerging! 🥰
The kangaroo paw plants are beautiful and come in a range of colours. You will love it!

I appreciate the photo inserts. They look wonderful!
One of the best videos. Broke it up in three digestible sittings and not angry about it at all. U really covered a lot of things from bulbs to splitting to transplanting to germination troubleshooting, etc. So thannnk you.
It's so helpful to see what the seedlings look like for those of us who haven't grown certain flowers. Thank-you.
Videos such as this one is why I love this channel! Thx, Laura!
So much to learn so grateful for these lovely cheerful lady. You definitely have the right "plantitude". 🌸🙂
Finally! I can show my husband that even Laura has a crap pile! Ha! Love the reality. Who has time to put everything away when we have plants to take care of.
I love showing my husband that it's not just me...Laura has mysteries in her seedling pots too!

I’ve been wondering the same thing!!
☕️Good day to all from Michigan where snow is forecasted for today, so a day off work and hot coffee is as welcome as Laura in the greenhouse! Just Beautiful plants and seedlings, Laura, I marvel at how you keep track of it all. Have a great new week everyone 🌷🌸🌼👏🏻
It's snowing in Virginia today too!
@@klhwalker it's snowing here in Ohio too.
Snowed enough here in Minnesota this morning today to turn everything white. We were so hot last year I'm not complaining lol
Snowed in Illinois as well....at least a half inch of slushy wet stuff. Sigh!!!! It's all gone now at least.
Dee was correct in Michigan, it snowed for about 3 hours, but no harm done.
This would be gorgeous in the flower garden and is perfect for allowing those vining plants to climb.
Good Mornjng, happy Monday! That weather is how it's going to be in michigan today! I have my winter boots, umbrella and rain boots lol

wonderful video, it was so calming to watch with the lovely music and was lovely seeing all the growth of the seeds. x
I wish I was as plant savvy as Laura. She really inspires me. I’ve always wanted to grow my own vegetable and flower garden but have never had the opportunity. Watching her and her family gives me hope that I can get there one day. For right now I been having a two month dilemma on what kind of houseplant I should start my gardening adventures with. Complete beginner is a level above where I’m at lol. Any advice or suggestions anyone? They would be appreciated 🙂
Good morning from Windermere Florida zone 9b USA 🇺🇸
Happy Monday Laura and all of my Garden Friends 🌿💚🌿
Good morning Peggy.
@@lynnschantz9185 Good Morning Lynn👩🌾👍🌿💚🌿
Good afternoon Peggy from Southern England. I've been gardening but I'm now sitting in the lovely sunshine watching GA.
@@sueshynn586 Hi Sue, I hope you got lots of gardening done on your Bank Holiday 🌿💚🌿
Gave me ideas of seeds I can start next year! I didn't know geraniums were easy from seed! I want some bunny tail, too! THANK YOU!
I wish I could afford a green house. I use the winter sowing method and start seeds by bringing them in and out and covering everything when it’s going to be cold. Such a pain in the ass. Worth it though. 😅
Getting so close to the full swing of planting season, I cant wait! I'm so excited!!! To see how everything turns out on your end and to start on my end. Darn weather 🙄
Making me want a new greenhouse.❤️
It’s nice to see what hasn’t worked for you. Sometimes everything looks so perfect on RUclips, I feel like I’m the only one with dead plants, mistakes and bug damage.
Laura, this was a delicious video! Because of you, I'm now growing flowers from seed. I'm still very much an amateur but I've had some successes that are encouraging me to keep going! I'm also giving myself grace with the "failures." It's so cool to see how robust your seedings are. I appreciate learning about how and when you fertilize the seedings. Oh, and the ranunculus I learned how to pre-sprout from you came up! I have some beautiful yellow and pink ranunculus now :-)
I love to take care of my seedlings. I don't have much space and I always have too many plants but I don't care. When I'm repotting my seedlings I'm in my happy place. 🌱❤
How did I not know there was such a thing as double columbine? That’s incredible! There’s such a lot going on in your greenhouse. I’m overwhelmed just looking at it. But I’ll happily watch you do all the work.😂 ( I didn’t mean that to sound as rude as it came out). Thanks for the video today. I like the longer ones!!! 💚💚💚
What a refreshing morning to wake up to some much needed rain, my coffee and Laura. Laura you are such an inspiration. I look so forward to your videos everyday. I needed the motivation to get out and thin some of my starts. Of course seeing sweet Benjamin helping his mom was icing on the cake.
Good morning from Michigan to all Garden Answer friends. Snow is in our forecast today 🤪watching Laura’s video give’s me hope that warm weather is almost here, so we can enjoy gardening 👩🌾
Thank you for the update!! I was getting discouraged with some of my seedlings but seeing yours doing the same is encouraging. My cup and saucer vines last year (2 ) 4in pots grew over 15 feet tall!!!! They were massive!!!!! Love you videos!! ❤️🌸🌼🌺
Funny my place looks like that my family calls me “” a hoarder but when they need something or want something on the fly who do they call and come to me strange huh? Lol. Love you reality.
Good Morning! 🌞 The 2022 planting/growing season is going to get busier once the weather shapes up! Everything looks amazing in the greenhouse! I am anxious to get outside & start my season, I have started clean up in between weather systems! 😃🌧🌨🌩🌬🌞🌱🌷
That was so helpful and timely! I am just in the midst of tons of seedlings at different stages and You gave me the confidence and knowledge to properly and optimally care for them and move them forward. As a new gardener, you help shorten that ever painful learning curve. 😁 You intuitively know what we need and how to present it. I am so grateful for you and all you do every day.
My garden is therapy, exercise, and sustenance all of which have become ESSENTIAL in my life. My plans, even work sometimes 😳, come in a distant second place 😅.
☮️ 💟
This video was fantastic! Showing them as seedlings then showing them in bloom was great. Wow, we get to see both. Great video. Thank you so much.
I've been...somewhat patiently...waiting for this video. No mention of the blue poppy, guessing it hasn't gone well.? Really looking forward to seeing the new gardens over this summer. Hope everyone has a wonderful week ahead, just the right amount of rain, no snow for me here on the shore in Maryland....YAY.
Gm..it’s cold here too! Fun in the greenhouse🌞🌱💚
💜💚It looks great!! It's snowing here. All your seedlings are gonna be something to see this year!!
Laura that was a fab 40 minutes to spend with you. I’ve done a face mask, painted my nails and given myself a facial all whilst listening to your talk .. Sunday night done right in my opinion. Now I have a list of things to be getting on with in my own greenhouse tomorrow. Thank you x
laura: "sorry about the wind"
me: *only hearing myself munching on snacks while watching this*
Perfect timing, I was just going to search to remind myself of some of these steps and tips for my seedlings.
oh the wind......I am thinking that is what was coming on the video about 40:00 WOW fun to see Benjamin helping and watering.
Yep I did learn something, I repotted my small little seedlings way to early. Also I have a heart that just can’t thin the plants out but I have very little room and grow light space to separate them 😩. Oh the dilemmas that I have come into 😆. But this did help me a lot to understand the next stage I need to do. Thank you Laura!!
I had amazing luck with lavender starting seeds in the water jug Method. All of them came up strong. I planted 5 seeds per jug. It was so exciting since I’d like to plant a hedge of them it is such a cost effective way too
Thanks for the info, I think I’ll try it next year!
Hey Laura! Love watching your show everyday! You mentioned that you couldn't remember the name of the fig. You may already know this but when I can't remember the name of a plant, I open up the Google search engine, take a pic of the plant using the Google camera and it searches the internet for a matching plant. Works every time.😊
Oh by the way, when are you and your mom going antique shopping again? Love those episodes too!
Hi Laura 👋thank you for showing your growing future plants ; great info on thinning them thank you again 🥰🙌🧤👒🐨🦘🇦🇺Karen from Australia 🍂☀️😎☔️🐝🦇
I’m a huge fan of Canna plants. So pretty!!
Thank you, Laura! Amazing overview of your flower seedlings: Thorough and full of useful information. Encouraged me (🇬🇧) to resow flowers that failed to germinate.
Fantastic greenhouse!
How did the blue poppies go? And the winter sowing jugs? 💖
I was wondering this too!
She covered that already. Watch the recap videos, 2 or 3 videos back. Highlights channel
Love the greenhouse tour ! I practically grew up in a greenhouse my parents had a retail business for 30+ years . Wondering if you run a circulating fan it would benefit your seedlings . Also so curious if your milk jug plantings made it ? I don’t have a greenhouse so keep experimenting with the milk jug method, I’m finding my cool weather perennials do the best . I had less then 50% success this season 🥴 🤷🏻
So many lovely plants!! The kids must be in heaven running around in there during the winter.
It looks to me like your seedlings are a success! But then anything you do is a success. I can’t wait to see all of the plants out in your garden and blooming. Exciting ❤️!
5:31 As a longtime gardener of mostly veggies (like 6 acres), I’m enjoying your videos while recuperating (and watching your cat using your newly filled trays as a litter box!) . One reason your trays aren’t sprouting evenly is the temp is much higher next to the walls of the greenhouse. If needed, you can rotate the trays but that’s a lot of work! Also, seeds are really important on where they are from. I think there’s only 10 or 12 seed companies growing their own seeds - the rest are purchased in bulk from giant seed companies, so you’ll get a huge variety of germ. On our farm I used to track what I seeded and from which company. I found one company (Baker Creek) was the worst germ overall; Fedco and Seeds From Italy were two of the best.
Love this video looking at Seed germ and Troubleshooting seedlings - really helps my seed growing journey seeing your seedlings, care schedule and processes when encountering any issues and potential causes! ❤️
Little baby beans are the CUTEST thing EVVVEERRRR! Everything is looking great! Ive had zero luck getting Asters to germ for the last 2 years. I just Transplanted my lisianthus, ranunculus & Snapdragons & am going to be transplanting a lot more soon like statice, strawflower, bells, cutflower kale, etc.
Wondering if you’ve ever considered doing a kids series on your channel (or second channel) where you explain some planting processes/sowing to a younger audience! I’m sowing some wildflower seeds with my students tomorrow for Earth Day! You have that sweet school teacher tone!!
At 32:36 all I can hear is the poor little seedlings scream as they are beheaded. And that dear Laura is why I have 27 dill, 24 sage and one full try of parsley! I can’t bring myself to do it, but I’m working on it. Thanks for the education on seed starting
Good morning! I will be separating seedlings today, hardest thing for me to watch was the cutting back of the columbine...lol. Over here, mid atlantic, i had to cover my citrus trees last night, and probably tonight also, cold snap coming through. But it is whacky spring weather. But I LOVE SPRING. Happy growing plants y'all!
Love the greenhouse education!! Looking to put up a small one next year!!! Enjoy seeing what you have started!!
