For the rudbeckia seeds! For seeds I have a hard time starting, normally I find they need some cold time. Wrap them in a wet paper towel and put in the fridge for a bit, you’ll start to see them open up. Process is called cold stratification. I’ve had good luck doing this with lavender seeds. Cheers!

[@robyncrabtree7561]

Agreed, perennial rudbeckia need a cold stratification period. Pop the seeds in the fridge for 60-90 days before planting in the spring.

[@f.demascio1857]

THIS is the way!

[@frenchgreguk]

Isn't that a carpentry channel? 😂😂😂

[@ianmcpherson2301]

This is what happens in nature seeds ripen at the end of summer and generally will stay on or around the plant exposed to winter (3 months) the in spring they will start to germinate. Commercially or hobby the seeds a collect kater summer early Autum/Fall and stored in a warm dry place until spring planting. Youu need to emulate the winter process to gett seeds to germinate well. Nature has it sorted.

Ray is an absolute legend. Love our local ReStore! I nearly finished my entire basement at my last house with materials from the ReStore (they can't resell certain things, based on code). I've also volunteered there. It's an absolute joy giving back to the place that gave my family a nice basement to enjoy together. Cheers!

Everything has a place and everything in its place. Love it. Way back in the 50's & 60's the Japanese promoted/invented a methodology called 5S, to help businesses become & stay organised. Your outdoor storage wall project kinda fulfils the first two S's - Sort & Set. Sort out what you need and what you don't. Set the things you do need in place. Toyota made 5S one of its foundation processes and I'll spare you the rest of it coz while it can save a business time and energy, it puts some people to sleep...

[@MrHowieZ1973]

This was really useful... finally got me to remove the cheap Logitec speakers attached to my desktop PC. Replaced with the soundbar for our old TV. Now I can understand Jess despite my old ears. It wasn't about volume. It was about clarity. Thanks. Btw: nothing wrong with the video, it's my ears

My family has a nursury out here in Oregon U.S. We grow all our perenial starts in a greenhouse seeded in 100 cell flats with potting soil. They're covered with a cotton agfabric to keep moisture in while allowing light to still get through. If kept around 20-24 degrees C with ample sunlight, your rudbeckia should germinate within a couple weeks no problem. Hope this helps!

Great video! I've built a similar gardening/propagation area and have two suggestions for you: 1. An old pane of glass cut to size that you can put on top of your workbench is a really easy way to keep the bench clean and sterilised (the latter is really important if you're working with cuttings). You can simply take the glass out and wash it/sterilise as necessary 2. The underside of the shelves is the perfect spot for a propagation/grow light. You'll never have to worry about seed starting/leggy seedlings once you have a grow light!

About time you re-organised your clutter Scott, the new bench looks much better and yes I agree with Jess that the new corner does detract from the kaos we sometimes see. Always a pleasure to see Ray on the job and yes, I would consider that a hazard risk and deal with it immediately, no wait 2 years Ray. Can't wait to see the kitchen again. Keep up the amazing work all of you.

[@22kmclaren]

Don’t worry about those months of effort for one strawberry. Where I grew up in the middle of the US, they were slow to start from seed or transplant, then take off as an amazing, near invasive ground cover of juicy goodness. I say near invasive because they’re easy to kill by just turning the soil with a spade or hoe, they’re only “invasive” if you want and let them be. Keep up the good work, the garden and house look amazing, helping me dream of the time when I have enough saved up to take a sabbatical and do the same to our house.

[@tadasstrikauskas1205]

Damn, how Jess voice shines up when she talks about her garden. It is a pleasure to watch and listen. I love how she was included in the decision making process. If you would paint the shovel wall white - it might look awesome.

[@DRKauff]

Build a covered patio to replace the conservatory. You can use clear polycarbonate for the roof to let the light in. That will give you a nice functional outdoor space out of the weather.

[@philipteasell]

Hey Jess, sorry to hear about your rubeckia germination issues. I believe the seeds need cold stratification before they will germinate. For reference, I live in Canada and we have plenty in gardens around here. To cold stratify your seeds you need to put them in a slightly moist and cool environment for a minimum of 30 days. The best way to do this would be to put them in a resealable plastic bag with a damp medium such as peat moss, paper towel of sphagnum moss. Then put the bag in your refrigerator (not freezer) for 30 days at least. Proceed to sow them in seed starting trays or directly into the ground.

[@rjt135]

We have the Re-Store in the US too. Love that place! I've found so many things there. Mine also has a tool lending program where you can borrow a ton of specialty tools for a small annual memembership fee. They even reduce the fee for low income folks.

[@kr0k3tt]

Just some all spectrum LED lights is what you want. You can get strips of them, can't remember if I've see scott use them. However if you get some of those in that dark space under the lean too that will help your seedlings germinate and grow up instead of sideways towards the sun. Looking foward to the kitchen video. Love some filler episodes like this that gives me my weekly dose of motivation. Neat bench and wall.

Nice outdoor build. Make a sandbox for the digging tools. Heavy duty box about 14" sq, 12" high. Fill 3/4 with coarse sand. Pour in old engine oil/paraffin mix. When finished gardening. Dig tools into sand. Roughs off any mud & coats blade/tangs with oil, keeps clean, rust free, easier to use. Those 2nd hand windows would still be cheap $5 or $10 !!

I had no idea that Restore was in other countries. They've been a thing here in the US for quite a long time. It was born out of Former president Jimmy Carter's labor of love, Habitat for Humanity where they build affordable homes for disadvantaged and poor people. Jimmy and his late wife Rosalynn, God rest her soul, worked for decades to build the organization and they started the HFH Restore store to recycle as much as possible. I've bought many things from there.

[@juliadellafranca6922]

Love tour garden Jess. Jess try soaking the seeds for an hour or so then spacing them on a slightly wet paper towel. Either on window sill or in fridge for a couple of days. Just check what climate they originate from. That'll tell you wether fridge or warm windowsil They'll germinate then plant them in small container with an upside down cut off bottle like a humidifier. Till they get a bit stronger. Good luck Jules from Rockingham western australia.

[@f.demascio1857]

Stratify your seeds. Many require this step to germinate. Scarify the seed, lay them out on a wet paper towel with space between them, put in a plastic bag or container IN the fridge for 3-4 weeks, remove from fridge, allow to germinate in a semi sealed container.

[@caleb_h564]

Jess' garden looks so great! Has she ever thought about planting native plants? I am from the US so I don't know much about NZ ecology, but I do know you guys have a lot of issues with introduced species escaping and out-competing native species. This is something we struggle with in the US and everywhere I look (even in "wild" spaces) is overrun with European & Asian plants that should not be here and nothing eats, and there are noticeably fewer insects, birds, and other animals as a result. I have begun replacing all of the non-native species in my yard with native ones and it's a very interesting & rewarding journey that I think you guys would enjoy for your yard as well. Plus you will get a lot more birds, bees, and butterflies visiting you as you will be supporting them significantly more than foreign plants can! If you or Jess by chance read this, I would be happy to help you however I can, I am certainly not qualified in anyway besides this being my personal obsession but I would love to try!

You guys could put the conservatory over the front of the carport set to the workshop-side, recycling and all that but also a great seedling nursery for Jess and more shelter for Jess at her bench . Or extend the bench to end of garage and get some of those Glass house windows and mirror the kick back of the wood panelled side - for same reason of more shelter and seed raising spot in the best spot for it!

[@jamiemittermuller6470]

Jess for the Rebeckia seeds, do you have a heated propogator, as they usually need a consistent temperature for good rates of germination, if not they will germinate but not brilliant. Grow lights help as well for consistent growth, good seed compost mix which is free draining and then sow seeds on top and a sprinkling of vermiculite. Have you used seeds from the shop before/ where they good germination rates, I avoid big seed companies because I was getting really poor results (thought I was a bad gardener) found smaller retailers and have had near 100% (sorry can’t recommend for New Zealand) but I have used Etsy for plumeria seeds(near impossible to find in Uk) and had brilliant results from them. Grow lights are worth it for extended your growing season.
