Great video. Seeds last longer than a few years. I have grown 7 year old seed just fine. FYI, some seeds do need light to germinate.

BEST and most comprehensive video I have found for us beginners!!! Very clear and well paced. THANX! THANX! THANX! c.a. post

Thank you for the video I'll be trying this this spring.

Wow!! Brilliant ideas on starting seeds- spinach containers 😮!! Yes!!! Thank youuuuuu… happy new subscriber❤❤

Great video! Thank you for sharing your experience with us.

I noticed over 100 acorns turning into trees. I tried planting outside, but squirrels stole them. Watching videos, I grew some inside. Can't wait till spring!

Thank you for your information! Knowledge is power! I know grow light prices are ridiculous almost any light will work.

Thank you so much for this video much needed and lots of great information..👍🏼👌🏼

Great tips. Thanks for sharing!

Excellent information and clearly explained! Thank-you

Thanks for all the good info

Thanks Jag, the best seedling master class, so logical and smart sdvice🌱

Amazing video for a beginner like myself! 🙌🏼

Niiiice. I will be doing this one day. Thank you.

I always enjoy your informative content. You put all the puzzle pieces together for me. But wondering about your top watering. It’s not necessarily better to water seedlings from the bottom? Really curious!

I'm surprised you don't use soil blocks. Good video as always.

Thank you

Best video I have seen thus far. Detailed and informative. Thanks for sharing and making the world a better place ! Happy Gardening 🧑🏽‍🌾

Could you please do a video on growing turmeric? Thanks

Jag, you have demonstrated the exact opposite of what I've learned from The Dallas Garden School. I use 2 parts peat or coco & 1 part perlite for my growing medium. We never push down on that medium. Keep it loose. We never, ever water above, only water from the bottom up. We have to use shop lights here & we keep them extremely low, down to the tray & move up as they grow. We dome every tray & once seedlings arise, we remove dome. At this point we water using Kelp. I've never seen anyone take their seedlings outdoors. We wait until the hardening off period. You have a wonderful channel which I use constantly, but this video has me perplexed. Perhaps this is one difference between growing in CA vs. other states. Plus, where do you get top soil? We cannot find top soil or manure anywhere! They've taken all that away from us.

You do not need all peat and coco to germinate seeds, that's a very expensive growing medium. Potting soil mixed with coco works great and it has perlite. Yes bottom watering s better specially when seedlings are tender so you do not harm the seedlings, however when first sowing or right at germination, watering from above or bottom does not make a difference. I mentioned shop lights in the video. Doming is only really needed for leafy greens, not for okra, peppers, and other summer veggies. watering with kelp is similar to watering with compost tea. Moving seedlings outdoors depends on your region. If the location is sunny at atleast above 55F during the day, you can move the seedlings outdoors during the day only and they grow much stronger, this could be more doable in CA florida and southern states as oppose to colder regions. You can get potting soil from anywhere, i get it from Lowes. Hope this clears things up.

Great Video! I use self watering trays when you for start to fertilizer and what? Do I add light with dome?

I use a product called Mosquito Dunks, also 🦟 Bits. Probably the same stuff! I sprinkle it on soil, and put a whole dunk in my watering can, it slowly breaks apart and treats that way. Still use yellow sticky traps because they're particularly bad up north. Usually only dealt with them for a week or two down south, idk what the issue is!

Can you combinate heat mat and grow light?

I have a question, I'm starting an indoor garden, but it's summer time with temps hitting as high as 110 degrees. Is it safe to leave the seedlings near the window or outside? If not, what are some alternatives? Thanks! I'm excited to give this garden a go.

Can you recommend a trusted heating mat and heat regulator, Jag? I checked your list but links to products aren't opening other than the few typed in. Thank you!

I need your advice, I think I’ve lost my seedlings during transplanting. I didn’t separate the seeds while planting. I plated all my seeds (all of one vegetable) in one pot. They looked amazing and …. All together. When I went to transplant them the roots were all tangled. I did my best to separate the individual seedlings without breaking the roots yesterday, today, they don’t look too good at all. Did I loose them? They were cucumbers, squash, green beans and sugar snap peas.

I couldn’t quite catch what fertilizer you used and the ratios?

Why do you water from the top and not the bottom?

I've grown many a banana plants in cold climates and seeds sprouting can take up to 11 months. It helps to use tropical smoke , which is sold in fused in piece of paper. You can also use gibberellic acid or brassillonide to break seed dormancy. There is also the practices os scarification and stratification. This is not necessarily a master class, it's a beginner class.

How are you supposed to take them out? It’s impossible without ripping the roots. Even if you push from the bottom it pinches roots. If you scoop it roots rip.

In your video you take your seedlings outside what month and what is the temperature when you take them outside ?

​@DaisyCreekFarms Thank you for helping me with these questions. I can not find potting soil, only potting mix. Is it okay to use the mix, or will that ruin it?

HERE is an innovative idea>>> A weed farmer in California (where else?) scavenged a few BROKEN commercial refrigerators from a scrap dealer. He fixed the inside light, cut the cord to the compressors and uses them for seed germination. He places his seed trays inside on growpads & the insulation to keep the refer cold, keeps it warm. WOW. Starting refer in a refer. Whoda thought? Reuse-Recycle-Repurpose just like any good hippie would. !

like the video but you dont have to press down the soil to get your seeds to grow. I have not had a problem with any of my seeds growing since I started gardening. It matter where you buy your seeds for the quality.

@DaisyCreekFarms

5 ай бұрын

Pressing down prevents the seeds from drying out quickly. Also when seedlings grow, if you don't press, the soil crumbles when you take out the seedling, however if you press, the soil comes out like a nice block. A local farmer who is 78 now told me about this simple technique and i tried it and it is much better to press, try it out and see.

Can you please give me some seeds
