It is so exciting to find someone in my state and close to me. I am in the white mtns and would love to come visit your nursery later this spring after the 8ish inches of snow melts. š«¤ Would you be willing to tell me where you are? I havent really started anything yet but next week is my week to start some flowers and veggies.
I am so glad I found your channel. I have binge watched most of your videos and now I am starting to rewatch your seed starting videos again. This will be my first year of starting seeds inside. Following your channel has made me avoid some valuable mistakes I am sure I would have made. You explain everything so well. I am in zone 5b – Wisconsin. We were supposed to get 6-10ā of snow the other day but only got 4ā. I am so ready to get outside and play in the dirt but I know it will be a while yet. Thank you so much!!
I have learned a lot from your channel and enjoy it. *Question: Last year my seedlings were successful, however when transplanting to the garden, the soil on my roots was not tightly bound around the plant. Am I overwatering, not enough fertilizer–what? I only grow flowers and 2 vegetables (tomatoes & peppers).
Another question: I have about 50 individual alyssum plants. How should I pot them up? Can I combine them into a larger pot until ready to go outside? I've never grown this many before.
You have a nice set up.love itš
OMG Vita, Again another great video. I can relate to absolutely everything you talked about. Seems like I am constantly moving things around. I too start lots of seeds and feel like we have so much in common. I appreciate your time and help. Thanks Glenda
Great Video Vita! I watched while potting up snapdragons:)
How is your timer set up for your lights? Hoe many plugs for you have plugged into it ? Is it a surge protector?
I am looking to set up a grow area. I would like to know how yours is set up.
