#27 – Thinning Direct-Seeded & Self-Sown Beds of Seedlings

Why is it important to thin direct-seeded and self-sown beds of seedlings, and when is the best time to do it? Today, Lisa and Layne discuss when and how to thin your beds of seedlings sown directly outdoors. They cover why thinning is crucial for the health and productivity of your plants, which plants may tolerate closer spacing, the most efficient methods for thinning, and whether or not you should attempt to transplant thinned seedlings. Listen to the podcast and get ready to thin your beds of growing seedlings!
