Successful Seed Starting


Scratch that gardening itch by starting your summer garden indoors now. Whether you're growing flowers or vegetables, starting from seed allows you to expand your garden pallet. Many more cool and unique varieties of plants are available to you in the form of seed.

  • In this podcast I'll walk you through sowing to setting out in the garden.
  • I'll offer tips on germination, thinning, lighting and hardening off.
  • I'll explain how to avoid damping off of seedlings and strategies to keep your seedlings happy and healthy.
  • I finish with a mention of a spring favorite of mine, the early blooming Hellebore, and more specifically a wonderful new introduction, Pink Frost Hellebore.
