It would be great if you could use Celsius as well. The rest of the world makes up 95% of the world and we don’t speak American measurements without translating. Great video 🙏
How did you know what was on my heart and in my mind. This is wonderful thank you
Dill and basil I use all the time.
Love all you share, Gary. I was just thinking of seed starting basil and I know it's a bit soon for Marietta GA but thought I would pot up if necessary. What do you think about that?
But you can keep them in the house in bigger pots , right?
Really enjoying your straightforward videos. Looking forward to the next video.
I haven't tried herbs in the foil trays. But that looks so easy I think I must try. 😉 For small seeded plants, like herbs – I put my seeds in relatively moist soil (not saturated), then mist the tops only (as needed) with water until germination. Once their first leaves are up, I convert to bottom watering. Great success this way. Cilantro – for me, I cannot get them to germinate well unless I gently crack the pods. I've been doing that for 2 years now and have cilantro coming out of my ears. To be clear, I don't break them – just a light "crack".
Love, ❤❤your vids. 😊
Girl, you didn’t mention about lighting. How long do you leave the lights on? What time are they on? What time are they off? Very good video. Thank you.
