Woooo amazing
I feel so much more confident and ready for seed starting! Thank you for sharing all the details, very helpful.
Great video! I can't wait to start our seeds – my favorite time of year. I get to play with dirt despite snow being on the ground lol 😆 🌿❤
Question about the lights. Are you using regular fluorescent bulbs or specialized grow lights?
What is the shelf you have the lights attached to?
Great info. Thanks for sharing.
I love Johnny Seed and last year I wanted to order from Floret but everything was sold out. Is that where you got the beautiful snapdragons seeds? I've always loved seeing Laura's snapdragons and wanted to grow them.
Just found your channel. I'm in 10b.
I have a 4×8 space that I will be starting with cut flowers for the 1st time. You have been very informative. I haven't been able to find a gardener that I could follow hear in zone 10b. I've been following Garden Answer with Laura , Flower Hill Farm with Nicole, and Danielle from Northlawn Flower Farmer. Do you happen to know of any Gardner in zone 10b?
Stratification? My seeds need to be in the freezer? I'm a newbie. I've never started seeds. I got zinnia's for easier? (Johnny's Seeds) I was thinking I could direct sow but now it looks like that's a no? Thank you for your great channel.
Hi Jamie, how long do you keep your grow lights on for? I'm growing flowers for fun but I want my seedling to be able to be healthy before transplanting into the outside. I'm currently unsure if I should invest in grow lights or this set up at the get go. Thanks!
Excellent video! Lots of great info for seed starting.
I just watched like 20 videos and this is the best one! Thank you.
Excellent advice Janey 🌸🦋🌸
Once again so glad I found your channel. I’ve never heard another gardener say. That you should assign numbers on your calendar weeks. That is such a game changer especially when it comes to last frost date. It will dramatically help with the seed starting and planning out my flower garden.
I’m really enjoying and learning a lot in this series… thank you ❤️

Will this work?
Hello from Texas, zone 8a. Please take us along when you start your cool flower seeds indoors. I am planning on starting some and would love to see your process. 😊
What kind of shelving do you use for your seed starting station?
Just bought my grow lights (same ones you have) and was wondering if you need to move them up and down with the growth of the plants or do the led lights stay stationary. I’m enjoying your channel a lot even though it makes me homesick for NorCal and Green Acres. I moved to SoCal 3 1/2 years ago and haven’t found a nursery I like as much as much.
