Here are some additional tips I’ve learned from the past few years of winter sowing:
🌸Sow one type of seed per container – do not mix varieties. Label everything well with plant variety and the date sowed. Keep seed packets for easy reference. 🌸When to start depends on your zone and the type of seeds. I’m in zone 6b and generally start filling jugs, rotisserie chicken containers, and anything else I have laying around that can double as a mini-greenhouse in late Jan and early Feb. 🌸The potting soil you use matters! I love @coastofmaine Bar Harbor Blend. Moisten soil in a bucket before sowing. 🌸The seeds you use matter! I love @johnnnys_seeds. 🌸Label your seed jugs in two places to avoid confusion later! Stick a label inside to prevent fading from sunlight, and another on the outside for easy identification. Even if the outer label becomes hard to read, the inner one will stay clear. Trust me, you won't remember what's in each jug, so double labeling is the way to go! 🌸Set your containers together on the ground that has sun, rain, snow, etc. Check them once a week to make sure containers stay evenly moist. Normally, the jugs don’t need anything because the weather takes care of things. Add some moisture if dry. 🌸The seeds should sprout and be ready to plant in the spring when the weather warms up. 🌸Before planting, take the tape off and leave the jugs without tape for a day or 2 so you can open for a few days to get them used to the elements before planting.

Favorite potting mix which I sift for seed starting: Bush Doctor Coco Loco by @foxfarmsoilandfertilizer (they have a “where to buy” link on their website) Favorite seed source @pinetree_garden_seeds (code SPRINGHOPEFUL15 for 15% off your order) 6 cell trays, 2.5 inch pots, and 1020 trays linked in profile. Kitchen skewer from local grocery store 😂 #seedstarting #startingseeds #growingfromseed

These are the grow lights I use in my seed starting area! The exact ones! Yep, just regular ole LED lights can be used for seed starting. $22 at my local hardware store @harborfreight grow lights don’t need to be anything fancy. Only fancy ‘real’ grow lights need to be used if you are growing your plants to flower and fruit inside. I’m not so these work perfect! I only use these to get my plants started. Maybe for 4-6 weeks. I grew 1000s of seedlings under them last year with zero problems! I liked these because they are linkable(they can be plugged into each other which means less power strips). I linked some similar in my Amazon Storefront(link in my bio)! Happy Growing! Fun fact: This is probably one of my top controversial reels beside a tomato reel I had to turn comments off on because I was getting hate mail - yes, over tomatoes. 😝😑 • • • #garden #gardening #flowers #flowerfarm #flowerfarmer #flowerfarming #growingflowers #seed #seedstarting #startingseeds #indoorseedstarting #seedstartingtips #gyo #growingindoors #seedstartingtips #growlightgarden #growlights

When I first started growing indoors I had no idea what I was doing. It’s a learning curve and it’s hard to know what is right and wrong. There is a lot of information out there. None it is wrong, it’s all helpful but it’s a lot. These are the top things you need to get started! •A rack that fits your lights and your trays •Grow lights •Trays with no hold in bottoms •Seed starting trays •Humidity domes •Soil blocker - I have the mini and 2in •Trays with a small lip for soil blocks •Seed heat mats It you have those things, you are set to start! I do both seed starting in trays and in soil blocks! 😉 Of course, you need soil and seeds but you know that already! 😉 Don’t be intimidated, it’s all a learning experience. Things will go wrong, things will go right but most importantly you will learn a new skill! Link in my bio to my Amazon storefront. There you will find all my seed starting must haves! 💗 • • • #garden #gardening #flowers #flowerfarm #flowerfarmer #flowerfarming #growingflowers #seed #seedstarting #startingseeds #indoorseedstarting #seedstartingtips
