This Seed Starting Moments series is about the “whys and some of the hows” of my seed starting story.
My #1 tip: Keep it Simple and Stay out of Rabbit Holes created by so much Internet noise
How to Get your Seedlings Acclimated to the Outdoors (known as “hardening off”):
• Indoor seedlings need a transition period to get them ready to live out in the garden
• Place in an outdoor area that is protected from wind and rain
• Do this when transplants are 3″-5″ tall, focus on size rather than number of weeks
• Warm-season plants need this for 7-10 days, cool-season plants a little less time
• Good time to Pinch: if you’re going to pinch the transplants this is a good time

Great lesson today! 🌻
This is what I have found to be the easiest. I have a large covered front porch that gets that beautiful morning sun and my starts will stay out there and I move them closer to more sun once or twice before they officially go into the garden. Thanks for validating my method because people think I’m crazy sometimes.
