I have grown to love Botanical Interests seed company. Their catalog provides really good info and their seed packets provide great instructions on planting.
Thanks for the tip. I've never hear of them, but will defiitely check them out.
How exciting, it's autumn in my part of the world. 🍁🍂🍁
Autumn can be as beautiful as Spring. I enjoy Spring when everything is just opening up. Autumn for me means that we'll soon have the most restful season of Winter. 😉
Seed starting season!! Love seeing all that you’re growing - best wishes for a great tomato season! 🤞🏼💜
Thanks! The beginning stages of gardening are always exciting. I hope you have a great growing season.
Just found you and I am glad I did! Happy Gardening!
We're glad you found us too. 😁 Happy Gardening to you too!
I cant wait to see your planting video!
I'm going to try to do more videos of planting things in the garden. I'll definitely be showing the planting and pruning of tomatoes. I love summer in my high tunnel. I can always nibble on cherry tomatoes while I'm working. 😊
I nibble on the pea pods.
I must agree that Cherokee Purple tomatoes are the best!
They really are! It's hard to get people to try them because they look different than the traditional red tomato, but they are scrumptious.
You'll love the Paul Robeson:)
Good to hear. If they are anything like Cherokee Purple, we'll be thrilled. I can't wait for the first tomato of the season. (It's hard to be patient!)
I am absolutely going to use your seeding trick! I wish I would have known about that years ago! Happy growing!
It really does make it easier for most seeds. Have a great garden season!!!
I use a dampened tip of a toothpick to seed my trays. Works fabulous.
I tried that once, but had a hard time with it. (maybe just didn't try hard enough???)
If you venture into saving seed, try 'Saving Our Seeds' by Beven Cohen for an easy to understanding. You'll save a bundle snd it's sooo easy. Start with tomatoes and beans first to get your feet wet. Careful about tomatoes all the flower parts being inside the blossom before the flower opens.
The next book would be 'Seed to Seed' by Suzanne Ashworth. Good luck, hope this is helpful.
Thanks for the tips! I'll check into those resources.
Exciting... I'm behind on seed starting.
It's never too late to start. 😁 It's such a good feeling to have things growing.
The smallest tray wholes are referred to as plug trays in the greenhouse world. That’s how most greenhouses start the vast majority of their seeds. I worked a greenhouse for many years while getting my master gardener certification and small vessels for starting seeds is best but yes it does require more time transplanting but it’s worth it in the end as germination rates are far higher in plug trays. Enjoy watching all your hard work but it makes me so hungry for a BLT!!!:):):)
Thanks. My husband gets on my case for how often I use the word 'things' to describe something. If I can't remember/don't know the right word it just seems to work. 😄 Now I know the right term....now we'll see if I can remember it. Lol. We seriously wait for the minute our first tomato is ripe every season to have our first BLT. The countdown begins. YUM!
Brenda…I hope I didn’t make you feel belittled for that wasn’t my intent. I just thought I would share that plugging is the best way to start seeds. As for not being able to get our words out…that happens to all of us far more than we would like. I tell my husband that not being able to get my words out is because I have so much on in my brain that the words aren’t sure when it’s their turn to appear! Please forgive me if I in any way offended you!!!:):):)
@@vickiulrich6694 oh, i wasn't offended at all. I appreciate any knowledge I can get. My husband and I just got a chuckle since he had just mentioned the "thing" habit I have. You are so sweet to ask. 😃
Bom dia tarde noite…uma boa semeadura para uma ótima colheita…sucesso…um abraço desde Brasil 🇧🇷…
Muito obrigado. Estamos ansiosos por um bom ano de tomate.
You can get three bricks of coconut coir for $15.95 thru spray-n-grow online. They carry some wonderful garden product. I started about 100 tomato plants this year. Three kinds of paste tomatoes, some cherry and some slicers. You just can't have too many tomatoes! I do my own sauces and get my seeds from about 7 or 8 seed companies and have started saving some of my own seeds. Spring is just a magical time of year!!! God bless y'all and keep growing.
Thanks for the tip on coconut coir. I've never heard of spray-n-grow, but I'll definitely be checking them out. You are so right about tomatoes....there's never too many. What kind of paste tomatoes do you grow. I like Amish Paste, but it would be good to grow other types too. Spring IS magicial.
Do you have a video on your grow light set-up?
Sorry, we don't have a video about the lights. I just buy LED shop lights that can plug into each other for a continuous series of lights. Each wire rack runs off of the plus for the first light which plugs into a timer. Here's a link to the lights I use: This is the third year for most of them and they have held up very well. I use trays and other 'lifts' to keep the trays close to the lights.
Hi where have youbeen ,I haven't saw you in awhile.🙏🙏❤️❤️
Hi, We've been putting out a video every Thursday. 🙂
@@waardenburgfamilyfarm4764 I wonder why I haven't saw them? I Don knows.The soup looks good I will 😁 make some.My son doesn't care much for soups but I like to have them on cold nights or when I don't feel like cooking.❤️❤️🙏🙏
