I’ve worked in agriculture most my life. Pops knows his stuff! I support everything he said. The one thing is I’ve never heard 48 cell seedling treys/ 4 packs, called pony packs before!?! It must be a regional thing. I got a kick out of it . Give thanks for your dad. He seems like an amazing guy!

He is! Great to have you here! Blessings!

[@stanleygarland5164]

Pony packs refers to long ago when these tiny short beers were sold in packs of four. I have not heard the term is many years.

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

It must be a regional thing as the stores here still label them as pony paks.

The generated archives is one of the main reasons I wanted to do some gardening videos with dad. It's a blessing to be able to spend time together helping others also!

[@marywatkins9438]

These are great tips, but they remind me of why I’ve gravitated more towards winter sowing over the years. No grow lights, no thermostats, no heat mats. And no hardening off! Just a milk jug, utility knife, water and growing medium. Mother nature does the rest!

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

Glad you found a way that works for you! Happy gardening! 😊

[@sandybay5718]

This is my second year for winter sowing. When I get back from vacation I will start a few flower seeds in a tray.

[@Mrs.LadeyBug]

You quite possibly live somewhere much warmer than I do. :)

[@marywatkins9438]

@@Mrs.LadeyBug Probably not. I’m in climate zone 6a. We had temps of -20 degrees Fahrenheit, and temps below zero for several weeks in January. Though we did have a mostly mild winter here in southern Wisconsin, most of our winter temps average in the teens and twenties Fahrenheit. There are many videos on YT about winter sowing if you’re interested. The seeds that fare the best are ones that require several months of cold weather to break dormancy.

[@Mrs.LadeyBug]

@@marywatkins9438 I’m in zone 2 and farm/garden on our homestead that my Great Grandfather ploughed with his own hands. Minus forty is pretty average for winters here in northern Saskatchewan.

I tried to subscribe , but , KZbin says I have too many subscriptions !!!! Keep making gardening videos and I'll keep watching !!!! Thank you very much !!!!

[@Grrrnthumb]

Thank you, awesome video! One more thing that beginners almost always get wrong on lighting is that they fall for the marketing hype about getting perfect light spectrum, which costs sooo much, when they should be spending their money more on light intensity. Even though the spectrum is far off of perfect and the cheaper lights "waste" light in unused spectra, you can still afford way more light in the proper spectrum if you spend it on cheaper high-intensity multi-use bulbs instead of fancy grow light spectrum bulbs

I just found you and your Dads channel and you guys have got me Excited! I have been gardening for my entire life with my parents. I'm learning So Much from him! My Dad was raised doing the tilling and doing the 10-10-10 thing. We continued it for 55 years of my life. We started doing the adding compost and amending thing about 5 years ago, however Daddy loved to till. Our gardens have improved in growth and yield. Your Dad has helped me look at no till Seriously and drip irrigation. I'd LOVE to hear him go more indepth about planting by the signs and moon phases!!! My grandmother did and I Wish I could remember all she talked about! It's a lost tradition that more need to know about! I want you to Love your Dad He's Special like my Daddy was. I lost him last March. So Love and Learn all you can. You Guy's make a Great Team! Remember Jesus Loves You!

[@dustyflats3832]

Some great tips. Do remove covers and heat once germination starts. About the personal heat pad-I wouldn’t advise it for use around water unless it states it’s approved. Not sure, but all the personal use pads should be designed to shut off to avoid burns and would not remain on. I do agree to use a temp regulator when using heat mats for growing. They get way too hot inside-10-20 degrees warmer than air temp. There seems to be a lot of regulators plugged into the germination box. A long 4’ heat mat would probably do the job. Everybody has their own way I guess. Many I see say to saturate soil before filling cells. I agree with you on adding it dry. You are correct that it gets too wet, especially for tiny seeds like poppies. The seeds can rot and the soil molds. I have a pump sprayer I use also as the bottle sprayers break and wear out your hand. My husband and I were laughing because it reminded us of his dad and creations he came up with. 😊

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

Thanks for your comments! The heat mats do not automatically shut off,that's what you want otherwise you'd have to be turning them back on all the time,and these mats are sealed so water can't get into them and cause any problems. All those things you saw plugged into the germination chamber are not heat mats🤣 there's lights, different circulation fans and one 5 foot commercial heat mat plus different relays to control temperature different at night versus the day and also timer and light and heat controls for the upper indoor lettuce grow.

been using regular t8 leds 6500k , highest lumens you can find... and it works fine for seedlings. Full spectrum is super expensive and useful if you want to grow plants to maturity / fruiting

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

Yes you are correct,it's just that a lot of people keep them too far above the plant,there's nothing wrong with T-8s,the full spectrum leds are much cheaper than they used to be and more lumens/ watt so they are cheaper to run as well.

I do use pre moistened seed planting soil. Works well for me to get the moisture in it. Otherwise it is very hard for me to get it to accept the water.

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

That's one of the reasons why I use coco coir. Peatmoss is hydrophobic but coco absorbs water very well - it's like a sponge. So by having added coir in the mix, the coir quickly absorbs the available water and then it slowly hydrates the hydrophobic peatmoss.

The seeding heat maps can come with a thermostat. I was very confused at why you were using a heating pad until you said that.

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

We understand that. However, the majority of the small seed germination heating mats are only 20 watts, whereas the mats we recommend are 50 watts and can easily heat the seedlings in much colder environments. Blessings! 😊

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

Many of the cheaper mats don't have thermostats, they just get warm and heat the trays 10-20 F above ambient temperature, even in hot environments.
