Transplanting Seedlings from the Cold Frame
On Jan 25, I planted a lot of seeds in my cold frame. Things have gone very well, with the exception of the weather. It’s been a cold and rainy Spring, so I’…

Ive noticed the last 4 or 5 years, that I had to replant plants for one reason or another. Rain too much,bugs eating on them,critters having lunch in my garden,and that dreaded frost with bad timing .
We had frost warning last night. I was prepared this time. Bought me some garden blankets. and IT decided not to frost in my area. LOL. ok lucky that time . have a goodun

It’s been a very unusual Spring. Lot’s of people are having problems. Planting, re-planting, and more re-planting. The warm weather has to stick around sooner or later, I hope.

Hey Bobby, thanks for the information. I went ahead and subscribed to navajopa31. I appreciate any imformation I can get my hands on. I lost my seedlings in the green house this week. I’ll be starting over needless to say. But, that is ok , point is to never give up. Stil early enough to restart another round. Have a goodun

This has been a strange Spring for a lot of people. As odd as it’s has been, I’m still pretty much on schedule. The only thing I missed was potatoes. It was too wet at planting time to get any rows ready, and I didn’t want to plant them a month late. Yes…..those were tomatoes. 🙂

The key with lettuce, and any other seedling is this: As soon as you see a single seed begin to sprout, get them under your grow lights…whatever kind you’re using. And keep the light as close as possible. They’ll be short and stocky as opposed to tall and skinny.

I would really like a video that shows you planting seeds for seedlings, growing them and then transplanting them for hydroponics. Lettuce especially. I know that you have others that have bits and pieces and I will rewatch them as well, but my lettuce just doesn’t seem to look right. Thank you & God Bless!

I’ve seen a few things in my days but I’ve never seen pigs fly and anyone running the tiller with one hand drinking coffee. 😉 Next I expect to so you some flight. Great cold frame crops. I’m sold on the frame method for next winter. You always make this thing look so easy. Thank You sir

With the amount of dehydrating your planning on doing It might be a good idea to make a solar dehydrator. I plan on doing that this summer after I harvest my garden. I found running the food dehydrator all the time ran up the electricity bill al lot!!!

I hear you about that rain, finally got planted Saturday. I so love to make cole slaw from kohlirabi. They are also great roasted with herbs. Maintaining the supply is a must. You can never out give!

Will you be doing any videos of the preserving (freezing, canning, dehydrating) of crops? I’d really like to see how you do it. :o)

I use 6 mil greenhouse plastic/poly. It’s UV treated and doesn’t breakdown fast like the cheap plastic does. Check with a greenhouse supplier if you have one in your area. Or look up Growers Supply / Farmtek online. You can buy smaller pieces from them.

It went from cool to hot here, looking at upper 80’s for Thursday. Things are drying out pretty good, so hopefully I can get all of the gardens prepped and ready for some planting in a few weeks. The ground is still too cool to be planting most things. Thanks.

Last year, we we’re giving tomatoes away by the bushel. Several of the older folk in this area can’t garden anymore, or their gardens didn’t do so well. Since they are used to canning and stocking the pantry, they were quite thankful to be able to come and get what they needed. Since things are worse off than they were a year ago, I’m gonna try to grow even more this year to make sure folks have enough.

Hey… look who’s back ! Somebody subscribed a few days ago with the name The Jwlrymkr, and I wondered if it was you. Apparently it wasn’t. Yes sir, I’ve been very busy, learning a whole lot of new things. I’m glad to hear from you. If you need any help, just holler. You know the number.
