Great video thanks
your video is so helpful to me, I just intended to grow some cut flowers in my deck this spring, where only receive about 5 hours sun light in summer, does it work for zinnia, and bachelor buttons? thank you
thank. you fellow SF grower! when do you start putting seeds in soil?
Great information, just what I need in less than 3 minutes! I thought I'd need very deep pots to grow container zinnias with roots deep enough to keep them upright. Your combination of a wider (20") pot with tomato cages is brilliant. I found inexpensive nursery mum pots that look very similar. Will you share the depth of your 20" container so that I can be sure to replicate the container that works so well for you? Thanks so much, you have a new fan!
Great idea! And I would like to ask how many seeds you put in the container? Thanks!
Hi my dear friends I am sorry I have been behind videos. Sending hugs and wishing you both a wonderful weekend. Thank you fir this informative video 🙂
Mitch your voice is do deep and smooth in this video. What a gorgeous outcome. Great idea with tomato cages and sceen.
That balcony garden has an amazing view.
Haha straight to the point😆 thanks for all the info
Great video! Could you start them indoors to get a jump and transplant into pots, or, just start in pots indoors?
