I’ve spent the better part of December being sick. Not ideal but I had plenty of time to think and write when I felt up to it. One of the things I found myself thinking about and planning was, “what am I growing this year” and what seeds do I need to start? Starting seeds is something I love to do and I always plant more than I need. But it also got me thinking about beginner gardeners and finding good comprehensive information to help them. Yes, I’m on all the Facebook gardening pages and personally, I don’t find them useful at all.
One hundred people telling you their opinion is not helpful.
So if you’ve ever started seeds and thought, “Why is this so much harder than people make it sound?”, you’re not doing anything wrong.
A lot of seeds don’t want to be treated the same way, and most seed packets don’t explain that part.
That’s why I put together my Seed Starting Mastery blog series. It’s me walking you through what I’ve learned over years of starting seeds, which ones need cold, which ones need warmth, and which ones just need to be left alone. It will be 10 posts, released every week, progressing from the easiest to the most difficult seeds to start.
No fancy setups. Just clear step by step guidance,so you can stop guessing and start getting better results.
This is free content that I wanted to share with you, you don’t have to buy a thing, well maybe some seeds! All I ask is that you read and share them if you’re interested! That’s it! If you hate reading you can always ask Siri to read it to you as well.
If you want to feel more confident starting seeds this season, I’d love for you to start here. 👉
Over the next 10 weeks (plus one epic bonus cheat-sheet post), I’m going to walk you through starting the most common vegetables from seed — in perfect order from dead-easy to expert-level gardener!
