So how many of you start your own vegetables from seeds? I usually start my warm weather plants in March in seed trays and use grow lights. It's been a long, cold winter here and I'm ready to get my hands dirty!

Pete,
You'll have to let us know how those kids' ideas work out!

I managed to plant the first seeds of 2009 yesterday (celery) and can't wait to get the rest of them going at the end of the month.

Dec 27, 2020Always start my own plants. My mother found by experimenting (back in the 70's) that using a liquid kelp extract in the water prevents disease from hitting the seedlings. So I always use that and some nitrogen in the water, usually some calcium nitrate. With some peat based seed starting mix from a nursery supply nearby. Always get nice healthy plants.
