Thank you Josh and Caroline for your fantastic tutorials, we too are in N Idaho, just getting going again on acreage. We are seasoned gardeners, but there is always something new to learn. We are a bit older than you, so it takes us a bit longer to do everything. We have family close by so we are doubly blessed. There are so many homesteaders sharing how to do things its nice. Lord willing our current American situation will get straightened out and we will be able to help take care of many by growing extra.
thanks again and we will keep on watching
Tim and Penny N. Idaho North Pole people we like to call ourselves!
Hi from your N Idaho Neighbor!
Yaay so many Idahoans southern Idaho homesteaders here!
I invested in grow lights and heat mats, it really helps a lot. I built an affordable 3 level station to start seeds and to grow lettuce varieties indoors year round.
Thanks for this video! It's always nice to hear new ideas from various seasoned gardeners on what works for them.
Have you tried a soil blocker?
Are your tomato roots okay in that size pot until they need to be planted outdoors? Mine seem to need a size upgrade for more root development before the calendar says it's time to put them in the ground.
Do you cover them with a lid or Saran Wrap to help promote a humid environment for germination?
Every year I'm in awe of how such a bountiful harvest can come from those tiny seeds. The Creator and creation is amazing.
I adore these people so much!
I've had to start most of my seeds indoors as well. East Tennessee has wacky weather conditions till mid May.
Our friends who live there refer to it as Appalachian monsoon season each spring.
Thanks for sharing . Just moved here so good to know.
I have to say Thank You! Following your instructions has helped my seedlings not get drowned from up above watering continually. The roots are getting long and strong reaching for the underneath water! And the seedlings are All grow up strong and healthy for successful transplanting! This plan is working wonderfully 🎉🎇🎆😃
I’m in Canada, one year I actually planted flowers already in bloom and they lived. So I’m trying again to plant food, your info will help me. My trial and error began back in 2016. I haven’t pursued it since, now I shall try again. 😆
Ordered my garden planner!
I use a piece of paper, a sharpie, and tape over the paper to mark the pots.
I love watching/listening to you guys and got my fiance to start watching you guys.
Love your videos. I've been looking into jadam and making some garden amendments over the winter. All homemade options on the table. My favorite quote paraphrasing and so true, "you can't get rid of the vast majority of diseases. They are always present but require good environment to become a problem". I feel as my garden improves over time I experience less diseases. They don't go away, but they no longer cause issues as my soil improves. There are exceptions of course but for the most part, if you pay attention, you can correct many issues over time. Thank you as always.
Great video! I did not know about the air pockets for seed starting. Love the ideal of watering underneath. So many great tips! Thank you!
A third reason for started seeds inside is because many times the optimum germination temperature is higher that optimum growing temp. I get the growing temperatures for some plants that the soil temperature prohibits germination. So I have to get the plant growing inside.
I do individual cups because the multicell trays are awkward.
Buying soil also brings up the "out of sight, out of mind" issue. You don't know the environmental impact of the soil production. Making my own, I control the environmental impact.
Good Morning thanks for the. Information its just what I needed right now
Blessings to you and your family 👪
반갑습니다.
영상잘보고갑니다.
좋은영상 감사드립니다.~ 👍
Great video Josh! I'm growing Saucy and Jory from Adaptive as well! Love their seeds, such good germ rates. We are a bit warmer here in Western WA hopefully they will be going out in the garden in late May if the weather cooperates. Happy Gardening!
Nice👍
Dang it, already started some ...fixin’ to see how bad or ok I did lol. Hope y’all have answers on how to save the extra seeds Thanks love y’all !!!
Ok @18:00ish. How do you store the seeds ? Like potatoes , dark and cool ?
That was fun from Harrow Ontario Canada
So glad I caught this video! I think I planted my seeds too early! Tomatoes are going to be fine but squash, cukes and pumpkins are vining and almost ready to blossom! I too live in Idaho so I have a bit to wait still. Can I prune back the plants and still be okay when ready to plant in the garden?
Cool beans Josh , great tips and take away's !
excellent information.
Thanks....good video for me. Especially since i have clay out here in Midwest. Will be watching in future
Can you provide me with your top 3 books on soil development of your grounds/garden please?
Nice. 💚👍
Can't find link for Clyde's seed planter
Where do your buy your seed trays and it looks like little pots in the trays? Could you please post a link?
I would not purchase the affiliate link (Amazon) seed pots as the bases have holes in them making them completely useless if utilized as described in the video. Otherwise terrific video with great information that I plan on using to start my first garden.
Thanks for sharing 😊.
Are you able to show the tray that you use to put the seed pots in (empty without the seed containers)?
I don't know what they look like and didn't understand how you fill them with water and view the water level. Thanks
How am I just hearing about the Jory tomato 🤔 reading the limited history I’ve found so far I’d bet they were named after my family gonna have to research some more.
I knew my family had taken the Oregon trail back in the 1800s. We have a park in Salem Oregon, joryville park, as well as a pioneer cemetery. We actually had a family reunion at the park years ago but never knew about the tomato. Ordered some seeds to plant this year! Like my ancestors I recently made the trek west. Came from Ohio and settled in the bitterroot valley of Montana.
Tell me how to start seeds indoors with 3 cats. They use my lemon tree as a litter box, eat my onion tops growing in the window seal.
Hello, your videos are so helpful. But I really need help with spinach. I live in an apartment and exclusively container garden. I have seed mats and grow lights but nothing is working for my spinach. They sprout and even grow true leaves but then they never get very far. They are also extremely slow. Ive grown three batches now with no success. Anything advise would be appreciated. Thank you
Great video what was the name of the seed company that you used?
You just keep a fish tank, and add that water to your first planting, if it's sterilized soil.
My biggest problem is trying to figure out where to put the trays so they can sprout. I don't have any south facing windows, I have a covered patio but it faces north and is not climate controlled. Could I place the trays on a table with a regular lamp on it, maybe with a higher watt bulb in it? It gets very hot here especially in the summer (in So. California) so I have to be careful where I plant things because they will die from too much heat. Thanks for any advice you can share.
First I would like to thank you for all the information you are giving us for free, how can I join your classes if you are offering.. other than the free once :)
Thank you again and God bless you
They are always for sale on our website: www.homesteadingfamily.com
Registered thank you
I was just curious what the pod cast is called
So how would I do my starts indoors? I have kitchen countertop but I only have about 24" wide for any type of light. Would an LED under cabinet light be warm enough for them to start?
Thanks for info! But what was this warming mat you mentioned? Wonder if I can use an electric heating pad? 🤔
Josh, I'm new to gardening, but I've had success starting most of my seeds indoors this year. I use the peat discs that set in the channeled trays, you water the discs & they expand to little soil tubes & the reusable trays act as an atrium.... However, I've planted some pole bean seeds & this white slime "bubbles" to the surface, it looks like the seed itself is turning to slime. I scrapped it, planted new ones even deeper.....same thing. What am I doing wrong?
Josh, I want to make my own soil starter as well. I have a homemade vermiculture here and have beautiful soil from the worms. What percentage of that soil could I mix in with the starter soil? PLUS...one year I had tomato starts that grew horribly yellow...I tried adding Blood meal to amend but maybe too late. The tomato plants, after putting them in the garden bounced back but I dont want to stress them next year like that. Did my soil starter not have enough nitrogen??
I have a question concerning vegetables that I have canned. Last week we had a big snowstorm that caused a LOT of downed trees and power outages. The lines were ripped off my house. I had no power for 9 days. My cleaning products froze so I’m assuming that the vegetables that I canned also froze. Will these vegetables still be good to eat or should I throw them away along with the food in my freezer and refrigerator? I have an upright freezer and it was FULL. The refrigerator and freezer above it was also FULL. Now that is all gone. 😏😭
Meant to edit the smileys... 😭😭😭
Frozen food expands and probably broke the seal. So, unfortunately, you probably have to discard it.
Instead of using markers...I draw out a map of the tray!
How to make barley grass powder and wheat grass powder
How old is too old for seeds?
Horse crap. That's what we till in with the dirt. As a bonus, the area where they. Hang out all winter has fine limestone on it to keep it from getting muddy. Those chips of limestone go into the garden with the crap. Till it in the fall a couple different times and again in the spring when the snow melts.
I have a question, if you put 1-3 seeds in each pot, do you thin them to 1 or leave all 3 to grow? I wondered if they would be competing for space or nutrients. Love your videos.
Did you get a reply to this question? I’d love to know if I can thin tomatoes!
@@joannagillespie No. Actually. I have never received answers to my questions when I ask either Josh or Carolyn. 😒
You thin them or if you are lucky and arent entangled use both. No competition, that will yield no resulta
Started mine a little to soon still getting freezing temps here
Trees around me have blossomed before the last frost 3 consecutive years now, many farmers have their water prepared to mitigate damage but still loose some harvest.
I think I just made that same boo boo. Just got a little impatient for spring.
I always have issues with mold and fungus when I start seeds. I live in San Antonio, but i often had this issue in Utah as well. What am I doing wrong? Starting seeds gives so much anxiety even though I've attempted it half a dozen times. I love gardening, but I suck at starting seeds.
I’m wondering if you’re seed depths are wrong. Just a guess. Generally the bigger the seed the deeper it goes. Also, many times when a seed pops, it shows mycelium and that’s a good thing? If it gets moldy looking and still pops, it’s likely mycelium.
Have you tried adding a gentle fan nearby to circulate air around the seedlings? That helped me after I lost a whole flat to dampening off one year.
Salem, grab a box of chamomile teabags from your supermarket,. Add 2-3 teabags to a litre of water, soak overnight, then decant liquid off into a spray bottle. Spray your seedlings every other day with the mixture (you will have to make up fresh batches every second day). This is a natural way of staving off fungus and damping off. And, as The Reset Button says, air circulation will help a lot.
My plants stalks in my starts are so weak! They are falling down! Do they need more sunlight?
Abraham & Nicole Heppner yes
I just saw a vid showing the gardener gently stroking the tops of the plants a couple times a day (palm down, gently brush along tops, back & forth a couple times). Do this 2x/day mimicking wind and plants respond, stalks thicken.
Where do y’all buy your seeds?
Baker creek heirloom seed co.
Pencil on wood will not fade in the sun.
👍👍👍👌☺️
I had so much success in starting all my seeds but then they almost all died as seedlings. What I’ve directly planted has grown great. Except for my medicinal herbs. It’s been completely opposite.
i'm so sorry but josh looks like red greene.
