Zone 5 here. I'm all ready to start onion seeds. I will consider what you have started here and might start some of what you suggested. I will probably plant some radish seeds outdoors soon and see if they come up by themselves at the appropriate time.
Hey Luke, I purchased those bootstrap farmer trays about 4 years ago. They are already cracking and failing and I'm replacing them with a different product. Just my experience that they won't last a lifetime.
??? I thought you didn't have to put fertilizer in the potting mix until first true leaves
I live in zone 4b. Should i start my luffa gourd inside now? I know it takes a while to get them going in my zone.
I am sad that your shop do not send to EU countries 🙁
LoL … I started my super hots 2 weeks ago and I’m only 45 min from your shop … BTW some of the seeds are yours!
I guess I'm starting peppers soon. Otherwise starting tobacco.
In NJ. Started onions and leeks last week. Also sweet potatoes for slips. This week will be starting peppers!
Question : Would a Cactus mix added to soil work for seeds ? ( for drainage ).
NY- next week starting eggplants, onions, snapdragons and lavender. It's hard because just a few weeks ago we had 6.5 feet of snow that just melted.😉
IN 7a E TN, we started our peppers 2 weeks ago. The smaller peppers and plants give a harvest during the growing season however, the larger plants (bells) have not had mature fruit before the first frost. I am sure that I have been starting them too late direct seeding. I've also started thyme, oregano, basil, sage, brassicas (in 3 inch pots), lettuce, kale, celery, spilanthes, Munstead lavender, Roselle and onion. I'm running out of room and have flowers to start. I will find a way and a place to plant them outside. We have mustards growing in the high tunnel right now. Thanks for all of the great advice over the years. I remember watching you start seeds on the coffee table while sitting on the couch and then transplanting into the front yard area I believe.
"Pack the living snot out of it" That is hilarious 🤣
Yesterday I started rooted parsley, calendula, asian poppie, peppers, rice and I started onions a few weeks ago and am starting to move them out to the hoop house. Next will be celery, roselle, more peppers and tobacco. BTW, I tried the sand layer on top of the pots for fungus nats and it is helping. Thanks.
Title typo > Starting not Staring 😋
I start my tomatoes and peppers in November. Now that I have much more lights, I might have to change to December and January. But I went from 10 watts to 190 watts.
Unfortunately we have cats and no spare room to be a grow space. I'm hoping, with the seeds purchased, I will have enough time. I have 10 packets from MIgardener ready and waiting.
Honeynut and butterneck squash, cucumbers, lima beans, blue lake pole beans l, spring blush peas, sunflower, cabbage, pumpkin and fennel. Our tomatoes and zucchini I will get from our local nursery.
FYI: Im in CT we started peppers 2-3 weeks ago. We do have an indoor grow room setup and up pot as needed.
Has anyone actually had experience with the the tootheache plant. Does it actually do anything for toothe aches?
Luke! Your amazing!!! Next year all my seed shopping is going to be with you. Love Boot Strap. So glad your carrying there products. Can you please verify what you’re planting? Please. Are those bell peppers? I’m in zone 7a. Should I also start my seeds?
My growing area is about 60 degrees. I ll need to get a few heat mats for my banana peppers and watermelons
Starting my peppers and snapdragons this week. Thank you Luke.
I started my eggplants and peppers on Feb 7th. I’m in 7a, so I have a good growing season, but these take a long time to start producing. Great when they do though. Today my first sprouts emerged and they are all……MI Gardener Casper eggplant!
I'm starting peppers next week in Iowa
Will you be carrying the different mints again in your greenhouse this year? I’m hoping my chocolate mint and pineapple mint come back but I haven’t seen anything yet.
