I have a few questions. I’m in Illinois. When can I start propagating the outdoor plants. And where do you keep them in the winter ? We have a harsh winter. What should my set up be? Also are all your plants able to be propagated or do you use seeds sometimes? Thanks! I’m doing houseplant propagation at home but would love to do outdoor plants too. I have lots of hostas. How do you propagate them and when? Do you have a propagation instruction video?
@savvydirtfarmer

Hosta propagation video is here...ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-L7BBzOMCpak.html Propagation season is now! The heat is unbearable, so I'm taking my chances anyway. The summer will be gone too soon! My plants stay outside in the open all winter... rain, cold, snow, whatever. I don't do anything from seed... don't really know anything about it. You can propagate hostas any time of year... I do them in Spring by division (watch the video). I answer pretty much all of your questions in depth in various videos. Get you a cup of coffee and stay a while... look around. You'll be hooked on backyard growing in no time! thanks for watching

It's such a lovely idea, but in Florida one must obtain a nursery license, which requires a large piece of land (1 acre minimum), inspections, state tax licensing, proper zoning, and following fairly restrictive regulations. If you have a regular sized lot, chances are it's too small to get certified or licensed and it's likely that it isn't zoned for agricultural use, which means it may require a zoning waiver or variance. In Florida, zoning regulations vary by county and municipality so it’s essential to know the zoning laws in your location. Here are some key points to consider (as mentioned in the BCPAO - Agriculture snippet): Minimum Lot Size: Plant nurseries should be at least 1 acre, as mentioned in the BCPAO - Agriculture snippet (see below). Zoning Classification: Check your property’s zoning classification to ensure it allows for agricultural or nursery uses. If it doesn't then you will need a zoning waver (variance). Some common zoning classifications for agricultural or nursery uses in Florida include: Agricultural (A-1) zoning: This type of zoning allows for farming, ranching, and other agricultural activities; Agricultural/Residential (AR) zoning: This type of zoning allows for both agricultural and residential uses; Residential: This type of zoning does not allow agricultural use. Business Registrations or Certificates: Depending on the type of nursery operation, you will, at minimum, need to register your business and obtain a certificate to legally sell plants in the state of Florida, as mentioned in the Florida Agricultural Classification snippet. Nursery Registration: If you plan to sell plants, you’ll need to register your nursery with the state of Florida. Local Ordinances: Check with your local government for any specific ordinances or regulations regarding backyard nurseries in your area. While reading further, keep in mind that "zoning classification" and "zoning" are not necessarily the same thing in every county. And please believe me, if YT would let me leave a link instead, I would have. And here is the aforementioned BCPAO - Agriculture snippet (Brevard County Property Appraiser Office): "These guidelines, while specific, are still 'guidelines'. The granting or denying of all or part of a particular application for agricultural classification is a decision made after analyzing all relevant facts and circumstances of the property in accordance with §193.461, Florida Statutes, Rule 12D-5 of the Florida Administrative Code, and applicable case law and determining if Minimum Standards for Agricultural Classification for Commercial Farming have been met. Nurseries: *Nurseries should have a state agricultural certificate. Sales can be on a wholesale or retail level, but plants for sale must be grown on the premises. *An agricultural business plan (a formal statement of business goals, plans to reach them, and information about the organization) should be furnished with the application. *Only land areas actually used for the nursery and service area shall be classified. *Plant nurseries are recommended to be at least 1 acre. *Best Management Practices should be used. *A list of the type of plants grown in the nurseries must be submitted with the application. *Receipts from the sale of stock and expenses incurred from the agricultural operation will be required. This applies even if the property is leased. Types of Nurseries: *In Ground: ornamentals and woody ornamentals *Above Ground: in containers *Flower Farm: flowers only Licenses, permits, or agricultural certifications that are required by federal, state, or local governments should be submitted. Submission of IRS Schedule "F" will be requested from time to time as proof of an ongoing commercial agricultural operation. Determination of a bona fide agricultural use will be considered on a case by case basis. These guidelines, while specific, are still 'guidelines'. The granting or denying of all or part of a particular application for agricultural classification is a decision made after analyzing all relevant facts and circumstances of the property in accordance with §193.461, Florida Statutes, Rule 12D-5 of the Florida Administrative Code, and applicable case law. Any owner or applicant whose land is denied an agricultural classification by the Property Appraiser may appeal to the Value Adjustment Board."

You've been given some bad information. I'm looking at your dept of ag site, and the actual application for nursery certification. There isn't anything on the application about size. The "massive regulations" you mention aren't anywhere to be found - they are minimal, as is most states, though that does vary state to state. EPA permitting? Please site your source. Would that apply to a small nursery in say, 1,000 square feet? I promise it's not near as hard as you think.

I agree this person has been misinformed. I had a small licensed nursery in my yard, here in Waldo, Fl for 12 years. (Thinking of starting up again.) My entire yard is only 1acre and less than half used for the nursery .The annual license fee was about $75, we had a sales tax certificate, and an annual inspection that I looked forward to because I always learned things from talking with the inspector. It is not difficult.

@savvydirtfarmer
@savvydirtfarmer 3 года назад
Hi NIck. I buy many of my supplies from a local nursery supply place out of Elkton, KY. It's a couple hours drive for me, but worth it. It's an Amish place, so of course, no online presence. Ask around locally. It's common for nurseries and nursery suppliers to not be online. I get my pots for about .10 - .15 each for "trade gallons," which are really about 2/3 gallon pots. Also, I've found thousands of pots cheap or free on Craigslist and FB marketplace. Always look there as well. Backyard growing seems to work best with smaller plants and smaller pots. It's a lot easier to sell 100 $6 plants than it is to sell 20 $30 plants. A.M. Leonard and Greenhouse Megastore both sell trade gallon pots as well as every other imaginable size... occasionally they have specials or free shipping.

To legally sell plants you need a nursery certificate (name may vary by state) from you state's dept of agriculture. It's easy to find the application online from your state.

Do they sell fast? T.i.a

How well do sedums sell? I'm sure depends on your area. Do you see a lot of them in your town? If so, they're a good selling item. Take those Lowe's perennials (I assume they are small at 3/$10), pot them into bigger pots, and sell them next Spring for $7 each or more. You can start your own nursery with plants form Lowe's.

@savvydirtfarmer 2 года назад
I post them on FB marketplace and local buy/sell FB groups. If no action in a few days, I take the post down and repost them in a few days. I have some big hydrangeas posted now but have only sold 5 of them. But, we're 95 degrees+ everyday and getting very dry- ground is too hard to dig.

@@savvydirtfarmer Are your posts that you are putting up advertising that you are having a "plant sale" or are you just posting a couple of the plants you have for sale like classified type ads? I've never put up a post to advertise for a "plant sale" maybe I should try that next? I would love for you to do a video showing your actual posts that you are putting up. talk about what makes a good post vs bad post etc.

would also love to see what type of groups you are posting to. Are they local general classified groups or are they gardening specific groups etc? Thanks again for all the content! I'm doing this with my kids also here in AZ but its been pretty slow to get started. Just doing it with them so they can earn some spending money and learn how to work :) we are selling mostly edible plants and are priced in the $3-8 range

@@rynophiliac I do both, depending on what I have ready. For a plant sale, my ad would say something like, "Driveway Plant Sale, this Friday, 9am til 12noon. Every plant is $7 each. Hostas, coral bells, daisies, arborvitaes, etc... First come first served, no holds, limited quantities. These will sell quickly!! 1234 Fair Avenue...." Blah blah blah

I get them locally. But they can also be found online at any greenhouse/nursery supply place like AMleo.com or greenhousemegastore.com. A word of caution - apparently there is a shortage on nursery pots?? 🙄

@@savvydirtfarmer Ok thanks! I've ordered other smaller pots from greenhousemegastore but hadn't looked at their bigger pots. I'm doing a similar thing as you this year with selling seedlings from my house, but I'm doing garden vegetable plants and hopefully some produce later on in the season. I sold some last year to friends, but this year I'm kicking it up a notch and going public. 😃 Thanks for the info in this video, very encouraging!
