Hey folks, here’s your monthly planting guide for zones 5 – 7. Believe it or not, there are a lot of plants you can start indoors during the month of January. In this video I cover the 9 seeds you can plant indoors in January and I also give you a quick tutorial on how to plant onion seeds.

  1. Hey Gang! I hope you enjoy this week's video! Let me know what you thought about adding the planting demo at the end. I know it adds time, but I thought you might like a little extra this week.

  2. My very favorite videos from you are good things to plant in January how do you things to plant in February etc. I’m in zone 5B so I really appreciate the videos and thank you for keeping them coming in

  3. Man, c'mon, priming me to plant already? Nah man I'm just kidding!
    I'm ok with the onion, and spinach, but not kale,swiss chard….way worse taste than spinach.

  4. Great options, we also start our Broccoli, cauliflower, and artichoke in January- Zone 6B SE Kansas.

  5. Although you discuss Zones 5, 6 and 7, I think the seeds you review are relevant to Zone 8 as well. In my Zone 8, I am seeding brassicas as well because they are frost/cold hardy and I can get a crop or two harvested before hot weather kicks in.

  6. Thanks for the pointers. The planting demo was a great addition. Wondering what temp you set on your heat mat for the onion germination and do you continue with that same temperature until you plant out? Thanks

  7. These videos are a huge help! Thank You.
    I prefer Chard over spinach. Much more durable and huge in comparison.

  8. Zone 7 here in the mid-South. We did Tatsoi in the fall, and it lasted until we had a super hard freeze before Christmas. It's really hardy once it's established!

  9. Thanks so much for this video. I need to plant in containers and would like to know the minimum size container. Thank you

  10. Yessssss garden time!! Was just struggling to find some of this info today, not a lot of sources share how early these can go out in the garden! Love these videos as reminders of what I can get started now!

  11. My tatsoi and lettuces have grown through cold snow and temps all winter for me. I do have some frost cover over them at night, but they have survived some teen temps😊 I planted them in ground from seed in early fall .

  12. MA zone 6a here and wondering your thoughts on winter sowing in milk jugs and whether you have any tips. (I just got news interior renovations will start, and all my inside seed starting prep has been halted. Yeah I cried 😅) I don’t know what else to do but to try that method. 😕

  13. Great video! Thank you! I’m curious how you harden off your seedlings when transplanting them in early spring? I’ve struggled with this because I’m removing them from a cozy 70 degrees under a light to a cold 40-50 degrees. Any tips?

  14. I planted out a number of trays on New Year's Eve.
    Brassicas, kale, lettuce, mizuna, arugula, and spinach. Dill, mint, thyme, and oregano. Asparagus, green onions and chives.
    I've got my hands full, as I'm seeing excellent germination rates.
    This is year 3 of my gardening journey, and I started many plants this time last year, most of which were unsuited for the season.
    With some cover, and the fact that they are in a cool room already, i believe they should transfer well.
    My garlic patch seems to have survived Elliot, and I plan to plant a couple dozen more bulbs with this balmy weather here.
    Carrots, peas, and more green onions were planted outside, I have seen no sprouts yet.

  15. Hello. Thank you. I am a new gardener and just bought some seeds. I am collecting containers and supplies. I was thinking about putting beginning plants inside my home in NYC, inside and next to windows. Do you think that this is a good idea?

  16. Very good, zone 4b here and I'm getting my grow op ready right now for my first round. It's that time of the year when gardeners get the itch to start something. I agree with your choices there but I will ad sweet potato and brussels sprouts to that list…..happy gardening everyone and may 2023 be a great year.

  17. Good information. I've always used potting soil and never seedling mix for starting seeds. Is there an advantage to the latter?

  18. Here is my question.
    Currently I have a very cool room where my grow lights are.
    Scheduled for 5 weeks out, we are having a wood burning insert installed and it’s in that room.
    I realize it will be dry in there but it will be like a dry green house in august in there
    Will it be too hot?

  19. Thanks! I've been itching to get planting. Do you have a video on how your grow light shelving system is set up? Thanks, & God Bless!

  20. Great content I needed to see! I'm in zone 6b in south central Illinois and this is my first year of seed starting! Thank you!! 👍
