Saying wsup from 🇺🇸. Good tips! Im starting my cut flower garden this year. Not gonna sell yet I just want to get familiarized with these plants first🌻

[@tufornumberone]

I have another tip for why you should start the same types of plants in the same try (as a beginner I am learning this the hard way). I keep my seeds under grow lights and some plants in the tray are tiny and some are already big so I can not keep all plants 2-3 inches under the lights because they are all different sizes! Enjoying the video. Thanks for the great info.

[@bloomandgray]

Ahh yes I don’t use grow lights so I haven’t experienced this but good point thanks!

[@megcummings2074]

Hi, thanks for this helpful video! I have a question about tip #9 about succession sowing. Can you help me with an example? Example: If it takes 11-13 weeks to produce first flower from an early spring sowing, and blooms for 6 weeks, when would start the next round?

[@philstoke]

😍😍😍😛

The map you’ve linked is for average last frost date, not the actual last frost date which is later. Average frost date is the mid point.. so you can expect there to be as many frosty nights after that date as there are before. To get your actual last frost date, which is the date after which you can expect no more frosts, they’re on the site ‘ gardenfocused ‘. My last frost date is about two weeks after the average one. I’ve seen so many people having their plants wiped out because they’ve followed the average last frost date thinking there’d be no more frosts after it

[@rockstarmom3121]

you are a bit confused. The average last frost date is what every website, gardener, farmer, and seed packet uses. It's when the chance of frost goes under 50% and changes year by year. The first hard freeze usually comes two weeks after that and it again is an average because it changes. They use the last 20 years of dates to configure those. If anyone could predict our "actual" first or last date of frost, the weathermen certainly wouldn't be getting things wrong and people wouldn't be losing plants to frost or using frost cloths. And the website you suggested says "predicted" last frost date, so they are not sure either. So if anyone else is reading this, make sure you have a proper understanding of what these things mean.
