I live in PA near Gettysburg, started Winter Sowing 11 years ago and learned along the way. The first year I planted perennials, cool weather crops, and summer ones as well in the middle of a very cold winter. What I found out was the perennials did fine, with misting. The cool crops did well as well, but the summer ones did germinate, but as soon as we got some cool/cold weather in March, or April, they really suffered, or died. I adjusted to this by deciding to grow tomatoes, peppers,, eggplant etc on March 1st, which was about 8 weeks before our last spring frost. They all did fine then because I didn't have to deal with the threat of the frost for the most part damaging them. I also bought a small greenhouse, 4x8, which fit right over one of my raised beds This allowed me to start my other Spring crops in this, as well as the summer WS seeds for that extra protection in the jugs. I had an unreal crop of everything. Tomatoes pop out of my compost bin all the time, but that is Mother Nature at her finest.

I did winter sowing for the first time this year Are used milk jugs and plastic bread containers I live in New Jersey, and we had a pretty wet and cold winter My jugs actually froze at one point, but I didn’t change anything and continued with my experiment. Here is the list of what I sowed English Daisy Carnations Milkweed Broccoli Asparagus Brussel sprouts Cabbage Cauliflower Parsley Thyme Red onion Radishes I’m please to report that everything made it through the winter and it is now in the ground! The only one that did not do great was the red onion I still have it in the milk jug under observation to see what happens to it. This is definitely going to be my go to method for growing seed I’ve the winter.

In Zone 6B in Michigan I winter sow in jugs in early to mid March and have great results by the time they go out into the landscape in mid May. I will pop my seeds in the freezer for a few weeks prior, that need stratification. Great video!

How do you know what weeds need to frozen first and what seeds need that?

@the0prynce 10 месяцев назад

A thought for your plastic bin: If the relative humidity inside of the bin was higher, there would be less evaporation and need to water. I grow some species of mushrooms inside of plastic bins inside. They need lots of air flow and humidity, so what people do in those instances is they put about half inch to an inch of perlite in the bottom of the tub and dampen that. In mycology, you would normally put a wire rack on top of the perlite so the grow bags don't touch the perlite directly. I think doing the same thing here but putting the containers directly on the damp perlite could also offer a place for some water to wick up. into those containers, while also providing extra moisture to maintain a high humidity environment.

@jennasorscia9044 Месяц назад

Maybe put the bags standing up in a shallower tote. Since the bags are flexible, they'll fill up the entire space with soil while still keeping them separate.

@lindafreeman1687 Год назад

I'm winter sowing for the first time this winter. I agree that the milk jugs work the best. I've started some of mine in 5 gal water (Culligan jugs) using pots and cups inside of them. I find they work great but they do dry out much more. However, getting lots of seedings sprouting in them. I also used clear containers from the deli that chicken comes in. I don't care for them for several reasons. In the beginning they stayed too wet even tho I put several drain holes in the bottoms. And, every time I pick them up it disturbs the soil because they are not ridged enough. Got lots of tiny sprouts but due to lack of container height nothing can grow very tall in them. I used them for ground cover seeds. After the seeds sprouted I put my jugs and containers in my large wagon and Gorilla cart so I could wheel them onto my porch for protection on the cold nights. The porch is screened in and has floor to ceiling drapes so the porch stays about 7 degrees warmer. Twice I had to bring them into the garage due to very low temps. Started most of them in January and some in February and have sprouts in most of my jugs. I find it is still the simplest way to start seedlings. I'm going to plant the brassicas in the garden tomorrow but still have 3/4 weeks for the warmer things to grow bigger before our last frost. I live in zone 6b.

@nbeizaie Год назад

Very interesting result. Mow that you have the tote, maybe next time try to put soil directly in the bin and plant a row of whatever and label them. You can easily take the seedlings out using a fork. The more soil you have, the less chance of drying out.

@christykulwicki4323 Год назад

I did winter sowing this year. Ran out of milk jugs. So is went to the dollar tree, bought cake takers. Cut holes in the bottoms and I half dollar size hole on the top. Results were fabulous in the cake takers. I also put coffee filters on the bottom to help with the wicking of the water into the soil. The care takers are reusable, no duck tape since they clip shut. I also put 2 clips on the sides that didn’t have the slide clips that are on the cake takers. Will do again next year with more vegetables. I started my seeds in early February, zone 5-indy

@beckysnead8914 Год назад

Loved the experiment! I also wondered about the ziploc bag method, but I didn't try it probably because I saved so many milk jugs over the summer to use for the winter. I also tried to propogate some cuttings from shrubs via the totes container method. I was so hopeful that I'd have a bunch of new shrubs, but I don't think any of them survived that January cold snap, although I'm keeping them around just in case they decide to wake up as it gets warmer. My milk jugs have done better this year than last, and I'm guessing because I moved them so they'd get more sun this year. Your lettuce looks way better than mine.

@enriquet548 Год назад

I just commented in your first video about the big tubs getting hot. I have found the jugs have the best ecosystem for each plant. You just need to not overwater or move them around so they don’t sit in direct sunlight. I haven’t done bags but I think you might break the plants trying to get them out.

@rg-mi5hh Год назад

We winter sow in our breezeway, but we started this year about mid March and planted some after that. Trial and error is gardening. Tomatoes are growing. Green peppers are growing inside under grow light. Then afternoon sun gives them all strong sun for several hours. So cool to see things grow.

@schnder1 6 месяцев назад

I am new to winter sowing but just wondering if you put the plastc bags inside the bin would you have more protection from the bags being jostled, giving a more micro climate within the bin (needing less water)? You could put scewers through the tub to keep the bags upright. Maybe trying a little plastic wrap over cups that within the bin? I may try an experiment with all of these options. Thank you for all the inspiration to try different methods. I love your enthusiam and sense of adventure. Thank you for sharing your adventures!

I used the jug method last winter it worked very well except 2 jugs ended up with mold but it was a very wet early spring. I am doing it again this year but will wait until the end of February to begin. It's supposed to be in the 50s all next week. I don't want them to sprout then die. When we get our subzero weather before spring.

@thesoutherndaisyllc 6 месяцев назад

Honestly, if they do sprout, just cover them up if the temperatures get crazy cold, you just have to protect them a little bit more. The way our weather has changed so much. It’s a little bit hard to know what to do sometimes. So I protect mine and if, you feel like you need to move them then move them. I don’t think it’s necessary but you have to do what you feel most comfortable with.

@histeve1110 Год назад

This is my first year winter sowing! Kim thank you for all your info and inspiration! I’m in zone 7/7b. I tried to get a head start on my spring garden with lettuces and snap peas. Overall they did great, but my Romaine lettuce was eaten up by a mean bug. The snap peas are at least a foot tall (in a very well cleaned kitty litter jug). The other lettuces (in 2liter bottles) are busting out. I grow Tom Thumb, Merlot and Marvel of Four Seasons, which are all easy and have grown quickly. With the Romaine, I started more seeds late, in the pot they’ll grow in and under a solid cover to disallow bugs..we’ll see how they do..that’s typically a delicate and difficult plant for me to start.. I tried some hummingbird friendly plants(in jugs), some salvia and beebalm and agastache, which are slow but looking good. I also sowed zinnia and, like yours, were gobbled up after they sprouted. They must be tasty when young. For the fun of it, I put a sweet potato in one jug, to see if I could get slips, but alas..no sprouts at all there. Note to self, don’t waste your time on that next year..

Thank you to much for sharing everything whether it is a success or a learning experience. I live in NY in zone 5a or 6 (depends on what site I look at). I have not been able to do any winter sowing this year because January-present the weather has been extremely different than any other year I have seen in my 52yrs. Yesterday was in the low 70’s and this morning big we woke up and the high for today is suppose to be 37. We haven’t had hardly any snow this year and the temps all winter have been at least 30 degrees higher than any other year. I am so very disappointed that I was unable to do any winter sowing in fear wasting seeds and having them rot from all of the rain we have had, which has always been snow in past years. I may go ahead and try to do sunflowers and a few other hardy flowers and herbs that maybe able to take such wonky weather and temps we have had for months now. I won’t know unless I try. That’s how I learned last year. Last year was the first time I did winter sowing, and to be completely honest, I was skeptical. But I figured couldn’t hurt to experiment . So I had all sorts of containers, and I planted flowers, herbs, and brassicas and peas. I was astonished with so much that had taken and did great. But, we had a normal winter when it came to the temperatures. So basically what I’m gonna try this year is an experiment just like last year was. I’m not gonna know unless I try. 😊

I tackled pruning my huge Natchez Crepe Myrtle tree with confidence after viewing your tree pruning video. Thanks!

@Edu_Kate Год назад

I just placed my bin outside earlier this week. In Minnesota, zone 4b, we've had a very long and severe winter. So, I think my timing will be just right. I've tried the jug (or berry or lettuce containers) in the past to zero success. Either wind or critters tumbled them. I will say, I found bins at Target that are about half height as yours. That may be better at keeping contents moist. I went to water mine a couple days later and they were still quite wet inside. We're finally getting warmer temps so I'll keep my eye on them. Perhaps too warm. 80s forecasted for next week. 😱 I'm going to start my indoor sowing this week. Our typical avg. last frost is May 15. But this year isn't typical. First time watching you.

Maybe you could rig up a water spout(s) on the container so that it doesn’t need to be opened. It seems that it is successful otherwise. This is the 1st that I’ve ever heard of winter planting, so I’m definitely not experienced but I am pretty mechanically inclined.😅

@thesoutherndaisyllc 8 месяцев назад

@dustyflats3832 Год назад

Yes, the bag method I’m using a throw away foam bowl. I was concerned about the jostling of the roots. The cheapest thing I could find was foam bowls as I didn’t think the paper would hold up. I’m in Z5a, WI and the heavy snow broke the marshmallow sticks and needed replaced. I think it’s a great method for quickly germinating some seeds that will be planted out quickly like lettuce, but I just direct sow lettuce. It’s still cold and snowy at times yet here and will need to watch bags. In the jugs last week the statice and yarrow popped up. Concerned they may freeze, but I see the in ground poppies are green and tulips and daffodils are an inch up so I left them. I did take my garden sprayer to use a light spray and water the inside of all the jugs once. Like you said it’s been crazy weather which is creating a bit more babysitting than normal because of temp swings. Ugh, you have green grass already! It takes forever here! Next week we will Hopefully see steady 50s during the day.🎉 Hope you see more sprouts. Not sure, but did your potting soil have a lot of wood? And I hope the slugs aren’t eating sprouts before you see them👀

I am so surprised you had to water the plants in the plastic tote. I had the opposite issue. I'm in zone 7b (Long Island) and just had to move my pots into my unheated greenhouse. They were doing wonderfully in the tote until all the rain came. They were completely flooded. There were actually puddles on top of the soil it was so bad. I'm really hoping they'll dry out. I also used the biodegradable brown pots so that may have also helped hold moisture. Although in my case, there's actually mold on the outside of them. Hopefully it all works out!!
