    Hi ! great video ! Yesterday I removed a bunch of pods from my bok choy plant that are still green because the plant was turning mushy, so I removed the plant and then decided to save the pods as a test. I wonder if these pods that are *green* will ever turn yellow and then dry out, and have the seeds actually go dark brown to black. I have a feeling they won't. I'm betting you must keep one plant growing and let it go to seed in order to do this... so the pods must be on a growing plant in order to get those seeds black inside.... -- I do have several other plants and will let them keep going, they all have plenty of pods so I still have a change to get some good seeds. I wonder if you have ever taken any pods off a plant before the seeds were black.

    Just a thought: you've got 86k subscribers. You should really be affiliate marketing those Hook-N-Feed buckets. I mean, why not? You get money in your pocket, and we (people who watch your videos) would then have an easy-to-click link, directly to the company.

    You probably got a seed from a different species of moringa - when some companies package their seeds, they sometime accidentally get a few seeds from a different species mixed in. This happens to me with sunflowers.

    I think it's better to leave the shell on because it absorbs water that the seed can use if the soil dries up. Just a theory. I soak the seeds on wet paper towel inside sealed plastic food box. This is to insure that a seed is alive before planting it in soil mini pots. If you plant a seed in a soil pot before germinating, the seed might be dead and not come up so you wasted pot space for a dead or weak seed. I think that reddish seedling might be a weak seed.

    buy a baby wood-stove, and build brick half-walls on 5 sides. the bricks will absorb lots of heat from the stove, without changing much in temperature. the heat stored in the bricks will be released slowly to the rest of the greenhouse. Also place barrels of water near the stove, they too will absorb lots of heat without changing much in temperature. An old timer's trick: put water barrels in direct sun, place raised beds on top of the barrels. solar-thermal-mass. just re-listened to your cost of electricity segment ... Here in Massachusetts, just got my National Grid bill - 28 cents per kWh. Here, propane heat is less than half the price of electric heat. Wood is less than half the price of propane -- even if you buy those ¾ cubic foot bundles for $7 at the supermarket. If you buy in cords (128 cubic feet) the price drops by half again.

    Do you germinate the seeds in the fridge first ? I can never get fruit seeds to germinate so I just started germinating first in the fridge; one thing about small seeds, don’t plant them deep but at the top because they won’t be able to grow if the holes too deep; I first cut off the outer layer then mix it with water in the coffee grinder, then when you pour it out, all the seeds will be at the bottom; I saturate the seeds in the fridge first w/a wet coffee filter…. and I LOVE using coco coir;
