This video is so informative. Dolly Foster is a wonderful teacher. Great instructions with budget and creativity in mind. I learned a lot. Thank you so much!

This is absolutely the best video i have ever found. On any subject. THANK YOU!!!

Great video! Very clear instructions.

This is an excellent presentation with lots of useful tips. I am a pretty lazy winter sower. I don't have the time or facilities to pot the seedlings on and I sometimes don't get around to transplanting until late in the season. One problem I had initially was using regular potting mix -- the seeds would germinate but then stall -- there wasn't enough nutrition to keep them going. I would never use potting mix with fertilizer in it ordinarily, but I tried Miraclegro and Vigoro and both worked great. A lot of seedlings can take a fair amount of neglect and still thrive. Once the weather warms up and I open the lids, I move the containers from the south facing side of my house to an area that only gets morning sun. I am in zone 6b NY.

When winter sowing in milk jugs, is there a minimum height the plants should be before transplanting into the ground? Also, after germinated, can the tops of the milk jugs be left open as long as it doesn't drop to freezing overnight? What if it's very cold, like 40° F but not freezing? Would it be better to close the tops in that situation (I don't have the caps anymore)? Another question. I have my native plants growing on an outdoor table so they're off the ground. They get 10 hours of sun a day. Should I be watering them more often since they are getting a lot of sun and potentially drying out faster since elevated?

May I make a suggestion? Cut up the most pertinent parts and upload sort of supercut styles. Try making shorts as the YT algorithm seems to give those a boost. Idk exactly how one would expand beyond the borders of Indiana with their information. The Latititudes we inhabit give us, I think, a few different microclimates, especially with northern Indiana's proximity to the Great Lakes. The biodiversity of The Heartland must be kind of intense to work through once you get into it in-depth
