The countdown is definitely on! We’re exactly two weeks away from kicking off our 2025 growing season! So, you’re about to see us throw down a lot of seeds!
As practiced from seed growers, we’ll level with you. Growing from seed is not the easiest way of going about gardening. We think it’s really important to disconnect “growing from seed” and “having a garden” as two totally different things.
Growing from seed is its own discipline. The skillsets, requirements and potential problems for growing from seed are entirely different from successfully growing a garden. You can have a garden by simply purchasing plants from your local nursery and that is perfectly OK!
A lot of folks do like getting into growing from seed. It’s not just an enjoyable hobby, but it also teaches the gardener about an entirely different phase of life of their plants. But, it’s not quite as simple as just putting seeds in soil, adding water and voila, a garden magically appears.
We put a fair bit of effort into documenting and sharing our practice to aid others that might be trying to pick up the skillset. If you’re picking up growing from seed or are trying to improve your game, you might want to check out our article in the comments!
In this article, we provide what we’d call an “essential overview” of growing from seed. While we’ll definitely get into the specifics later, it’s good to have a broad understanding of what’s involved and why we do things the way we do.
We’re just a couple of weeks away to getting back to our full time posts! We’re really looking forward to kicking things off, slinging some dirt and using electrons to make plants!
