I just learned this year about cool flowers. It is such a blessing. Our summers are so hot, often above 105, that everything just struggles. My calendula just barely hung on during the heat and now during the winter they have continually bloomed. It's so cool that we can enjoy cool flowers because it's so difficult during our hellish summers.Thanks for your info!

The milk jug winter sowing is very susceptible to algae/moss growth and also just root rot from too much moisture. I used to run out and put the caps back on when I knew we were getting alot of rain but I think better drainage alone would work. As a funny aside, being from the northeast, I kind of did a double take when you said we should just take this as a God ( wondering now if there's a difference in how you say God and guide) 😂

Last winter inspired by your WS videos I placed a huge order with Johnny's, most were amazing successes, and now I'm a little bit hooked. They were a lot of work took forever to grow into anything barely plantable and I swore I'd never do it again but my flowers were the talk of the neighborhood this year so there is that need for validation again driving me to do insane things and commit a bunch of time I don't have. Ok so my question is are grocery store seeds any good, i.e. Columbine and should those be planted now? My Columbine never germinated last year using WS. You mentioned a cut in half jug, did you mean with or without a lid to protect through winter? I'm so confused with the fall planted seeds.I need charts and diagrams, lol. Also I was thinking about trying a weird direct sow/Winter Sowing combo method bc hoping to save time on transplanting. It gonna look crazy having clear oj jugs in my flower beds but maybe I'll hide them under some leaves, I'm sure the neighbors won't mind, lol. Thanks in advance.

@TONYAwiththeflowers3 жыл бұрын
It's definitely a lot of work. In reference to the milk jugs, I cut them in half and then only use the top half as a mini greenhouse, making sure to secure it to the ground with landscape pins. I've heard of people doing the same thing with direct sowing winter sowing seedlings into the garden in the spring. I hope I explained that well. Also, the fall seeds that I had sold out pretty quickly. I'll likely have more available for next season coming this January.

Have you done a video on best seed sources for germination and details how-to grow for flowers? I've been buying my flower seeds from the online Park and Burpee catalogs. Then I buy some local seeds from the Ferry Morse and Burpee displays at big box stores. This fall I had 5 packets of snaps planted in same tray Sep 12. 3 from Park, 1 from FM local store, 1 from Burpee local store. Less than 5% from Park or FM sprouted while I got almost 50% from the Burpee? Makes me want to give up on Park! I buy some veggie seeds from Johnny's but their flower seeds seem to be directed more to commercial growers than just folks like me wanting nice flower beds around my home. I saw Gardener Scott's KZbin list but he did it for veggies more than flowers.

We’re in Zone 7a, but we do get a lot of snow. Do you think I’m too late to soak and presprout my ranunculus, and then plant those out in my low tunnel? I’ve got the heaviest agribon frost blanket on that and a thick plastic.
@TONYAwiththeflowers3 жыл бұрын
I would definitely worry about starting ranunculus now. If they don't have the right temperatures, the corms will just rot. I learned that lesson the hard way. At this point, I think it would probably be better to wait until late winter to start them indoors and then transplant outside into very early spring after the coldest weather has already passed. I hope that helps. Good luck!

I don't have much experience with snow, honestly. However, I always make sure to go out and knock the snow off if things look as if they might collapse. Ideally, the agribon should be secure enough to handle most conditions. Also, I never water in the winter. If it's warm enough to need watering, the row cover shouldn't be on the plants.
