Thank you! So the exact video I was needing right now!!!!!! It's like you knew what information I needed before I had a chance to ask 💕

[@edna8924]

I started my sweet onions in January last year and then transplanted them into my garden in May. I had big, lush onions by the end of August. I am definitely going to start my onions now. Thanks!

[@GardeningInCanada]

That is awesome! I love a good onion! Early starting is the secret

[@stormy_weather_is_here]

You were great Nate's video Ashley! Well done :))

[@GardeningInCanada]

I was forced to rekindle my old high school drama techniques.

[@stormy_weather_is_here]

@@GardeningInCanada You got skill girl :)

[@carolleimbach6407]

Ya, I was dying! 😂😂

[@Connor_OConnor]

@@stormy_weather_is_here I came here to say the same thing, great work

[@LeslieSpeights]

Celery also has an extended germination time. I start mine in December as well.

[@GardeningInCanada]

that is a good one! what is your variety of choice?

[@LeslieSpeights]

@@GardeningInCanada I really like Amsterdam. it has a really good vegetal flavor like the celery of my youth.

[@debbiebolman2705]

Gets my gardening juices flowing after a couple months off. Thanks!

[@GardeningInCanada]

That’s the spirit!

[@MK-ti2oo]

Great video! I'm at 5k elevation in the Sierra Nevada mountains, i have Artichoke, asparagus, greens and lettuces, Celery, celariac, sweet potato slips and all my onions started this week!

[@fernraedcher6965]

I start my sweet potatoes now too for slips in water

[@GardeningInCanada]

Yes that’s a good one!

[@MagpieMalone]

Finally... my kind of gardening!! Hello from 2b in Alberta ❤

[@GardeningInCanada]

I get that!

[@renamaemcdonald2075]

I live in zone 1b - 2a. We are up close to Whitehorse, Yukon & this is a great video full of important information ❤

[@GardeningInCanada]

That is awesome! I bet that is a wild ride of a garden!

[@brianseybert192]

Thanks for reminding me about my leaks, skipped last couple years, remembering, I thought to myself to start earlier than mid Jan next time zone 5a. Enjoy your videos, Stay Well!!!

[@GardeningInCanada]

Ha! They are sneaky

[@stevenjohns7017]

Ashley, i have to say you're looking great.

[@GardeningInCanada]

Oh Jeeze thank you

[@johnransom1146]

Wow. I’ve been gardening a long time and didn’t know most of this. Excellent topic and information. Thanks

[@GardeningInCanada]

You’re welcome! I’m always learning too!

[@saviotoronto358]

good subject for a seed start

[@RominaJones]

If the post office gets rolling again, I might be able to order some of these seeds. Optimistically I set my indoor lights up yesterday.

[@GardeningInCanada]

Fingers crossed!

[@dennisfox8050]

Thanks Ashley, great job!

[@GardeningInCanada]

I appreciate that!

[@nicollekalivoda9454]

Starting alliums early definitely makes a difference. Last season I started some onions and shallots in January then again in February, and the ones started in January turned out way bigger by harvest time. I just dump the seeds into larger pots rather than than potting them up over time. Just give them a haircut if they grow too long and you’ll see the stalks start to bulk up and they’re easy to transplant outside in the spring because they’re more robust.

[@psynurse]

I saw you in Nates video. You were fantastic! I think an acting career might be in your future ....

[@GardeningInCanada]

Ha! Hollywood can call me up for my star anytime. 😏

[@bobvbk2802]

Great Videos , Thank you

[@GardeningInCanada]

You are welcome!

[@gregcanning8081]

“Along with my x boyfriends.” Love the sense of humour. Yes Canada is cold but also to see your dog run for three days says we’re pretty flat too. Love your work. I think I’m becoming a new geek. Don’t have the knowledge like you but I’ll get them with your videos.

[@GardeningInCanada]

Welcome aboard 😏

[@PlantObsessed]

I don't know if it works up where you are, but here in zone 5 we buy the all the packets of Columbine in the fall when they go on sale and then throw them outside in the beds in the fall. It's kind of like surprise gardening. You don't know where they're going to be in the spring. Ps as a chili head I can tell you I use a lot of hot sauce. I don't eat the darn peppers themselves that's just crazy pants.😃👍🏼🌶️

[@GardeningInCanada]

Yes so true seed sales for last year’s inventory is always nice

[@JohnWood-tk1ge]

I have four of the grow lights you started the video with. Plan on starting onions end of next month.

[@GardeningInCanada]

Beautiful!

[@Charles-bj7qu]

Thank you.

[@GardeningInCanada]

Glad that it helped!

[@christophersmith9275]

Peppers and tomatoes already? OK! Santa is bringing me the seed starting kit you reviewed earlier this year and I'm super excited to start garden year 1

[@GardeningInCanada]

I would just go peppers and determinate tomatoes if you have the space. Regular tomatoes definitely hold off

[@mireillealbert]

Ha ha you're funny. Thanks for the entertaining education... or educating entertainment!

[@GardeningInCanada]

Glad to be of service! 😂

[@rellimarual]

I’ve had great luck with those bags of bare root columbine sold in big box stores

[@GardeningInCanada]

I haven't tried bare root columbine, but I have had good luck with starting my seeds plants in December! I need to try those.

[@rellimarual]

@@GardeningInCanada I've grown them seed, too, using winter sowing in milk jugs, but they take forever to get blooms. In fact, none of the ones I've grown from seed have bloomed yet, thought at least one has a decent amount of foliage. The bare root ones bloom the second year

[@neillandscape1376]

Great Video Thanks! Maybe do a video on Polly Tunnels.

[@terrafirma75]

Thank you for all the tips! I’m not far from you so I can definitely relate. I never thought to use a cold frame to trick flowers. My mind is blown. Do you over winter lavender?

[@7dwarfes103]

Your're hair gives you away You are a Viking! An intelligent viking to boot.

[@GardeningInCanada]

🥹 my 23&me says I’m from that area back in the day.

[@Tippler0611]

What are thought's on wicking mats or similar? I've a nasty habit of dehydrating my seedlings, so a set and forget system sounds very appealing

[@GardeningInCanada]

I love them. Only issue I find is they can get gross and the roots will tangle in if you leave things sit too long unmoved.

[@dreamlovermimi9458]

I grew some lemon basil seeds . Now a have seedlings. Im growing eucalyptus , succulents and arbol peppers. And cubanelle peppers. On my south facing window and grow light set up

[@GardeningInCanada]

Wow! That's quite the collection I am jealous

[@RumduolAngkor]

Merry Christmas

[@GardeningInCanada]

Same to you!

[@kendravoracek3636]

💚💚

[@GardeningInCanada]

❤️❤️❤️

[@Leanne_N]

I’m always trying to get my onions started early but don’t end up with amazing results. After they have been potted up, what temps are recommended? I’m about a zone 5b. So when I could I shift from the house to a cold frame?

[@brucemills6755]

I fall plant onion sets for July onions

[@tamidavis3730]

Which growing zone are you in?

[@GardeningInCanada]

Ooh! That’s a good one.

[@batzzz2044]

Bout to order some plates to culture some foraged cypripedium seeds. I know where 4 wild species are and am going to try colonizing in nature next year.

[@GardeningInCanada]

Fingers crossed 🤞

[@krisyallowega5487]

I just can't seem to find the motivation to start. It's gonna be a toughie.

[@GardeningInCanada]

I am kind feeling burnt out too 😩😩

[@dfriz8513]

Omg...it's the ghost of Christmas past

[@GardeningInCanada]

Oh god that's live now ahahahah

[@techloidtech2051]

Is there any science behind topping your peppers in regard to greater yield, or is that anecdotal?

[@debbieclayton2742]

I do believe my over winter pepper plant isn't going to make it. The branches are turning dark. It's a habanero. The deer feasted on it and after moving it the plant was so bushy, beautiful and full of flowers which all fell off when i brought her indoors. I'm broken hearted. So, how do I know for sure?

[@GardeningInCanada]

Even if you have a stump left water + light and see what happens!

[@batzzz2044]

I am growing chard in my bathroom lol. I got me a lil problem called kitties.

[@GardeningInCanada]

Oh no 🙈 lol at least they are cute

[@kelleyleblanc5025]

Oh gosh!! Little buggers 🐱. I clip a sheet over my grow shelf because it’s close to my front door and while there is room I always find my cat laying on the shelf under the lights. He wants to grow! (Not that he needs to lol). He’s older and leaves most of my plants alone but likes to chew anything grass like…my onions mostly 🤦‍♀️

[@gregmartinsask]

super hot pepper seeds canbe started real early some take a month to germinate

[@GardeningInCanada]

I start my super hots in January and am always nervous 😅

[@HenrikeClement]

What about strawberries now?

[@GardeningInCanada]

That is another good one to start

[@JarvissASMR]

Tradenscantia 😊

[@GardeningInCanada]

That one ☝️ I am glad I have you guys everyday of my life 😅

[@La_app82]

Onions and leeks are my struggle every year.....

[@GardeningInCanada]

Yeaaa that are so easy to forget about

[@kylerichard1285]

Only time i have gotten full size onions... I started in October. They are so frustrating.

[@GardeningInCanada]

Honestly I believe it

[@edengardenlabs7773]

The pepper gods voted least helpful "gods" of all the vegetables deities

[@GardeningInCanada]

LOL 😂 this had me laughing

[@blacksmithden]

I started my onions new years day last year...well...this year. They grew like mad for about 6 weeks, and then 90% of them died. I have no idea why. The ones that made it got transplanted outside in spring and got to about 5" in diameter (Alisa Craig?). I'm going to start them in pots on new years day this year rather than in a big clump in a tinfoil tray. The pots are about 3 times as deep, and I'm hoping that does the trick.

[@GardeningInCanada]

Oh no! That’s ofd

[@MrSshagster]

Haha, “run like me ex boyfriends”.

[@GardeningInCanada]

😎

[@kimadams2995]

Love your videos. But please, do yourself a favor...I'm not fussy about production values, but if you could get a better sound quality microphone it would make you actually easier to hear. Or maybe it's how you have it set up or positioned,or something, but it was actually kind of hard to follow. And your content is worth it :)

[@GardeningInCanada]

What is it doing on your end? My side it comes across fine 🥹

[@crazyabundance3159]

I can hear her just fine 🤷‍♀️ sounds good to me.

[@edengardenlabs7773]

I was born in Texas and the people there can't even say the word Saskatchewan lol

[@GardeningInCanada]

I don’t blame them. My city and province in the same sentence are messy
