Great to see you sowing some flower seeds, hope you managed to fix the damage to your greenhouse. Looking forward to some more videos they really brighten up these dull days. 😍
I’m thrilled to have found your channel and always learn so much each and every video. Second year at flower farming and thirsty for soooo many tips and helpful info as to how to be a better grower. Thank you 💚 Looking forward to your next “class” 😊
Lovely video with helpful tips on getting started. I've an allotment and plant lots of flowers amongst the veg. This year I'm going to be sowing lots more flowers, larkspur, calendula, poppies, cornflowers, cosmos, daliahs, zinnia and lots of flowering herbs. I love all the colour and attracting beneficial insects for the veg. Flowers bring so much joy and lift the spirits, can't wait to get sowing again 🎉😊
I’m in 8b Langley BC 🇨🇦 and follow you very closely lol. Starting all of these tomo! I like how you post what and when to sow. Trying my hand at Lisianthus this year to! Thx for another great video!
Hi Sarah, great video. I have sowed some Osteospermum, Hollyhocks, Coreopsis and Lavender this month. Will be sowing some snapdragons, gaillardia and Rudbeckia Cherry Brandy this week. I'm on a DIY made heated bench with sand and soil warming cable, at 18C base heat. Your compost looks good ! Best regards, David
Very nice! I had a diy heat bench just like yours a couple of years ago but I don’t have electricity anywhere near my greenhouses now. It’s nice to have some plants on the go again isn’t it!
Great video! I seem to have seed starting "block". My motto this year is "Work Smarter, Not Harder" and I've been starting snaps and stock in food take out trays and then pricking them out into 72 count trays. Kinda tedious! I've not had great germination or robust growth with soil blocking. I've had the blocks "mash potato" before and its such a bummer so I'm fretting over which recipe to use if I go that route. While yammering to my dear mama (97 yo this month!) I realized when I pinch the snaps I can root those tops and so if the soil blocks aren't fully germinated I'll have plenty to plant so I think I'll just soil block....or should I just do the trays....oy !!
I sometimes find soil blocking a little tricky too! I think it requires some practice to get it right. Good idea about rooting the snaps! I’ve never done it myself but maybe I should try it!
Will you be giving any of these seeds a go in 2025? Let me know which ones! ❤

I love growing veg and flowers together too ❤️ it’s always so lovely to look at.
I’ve “winter sown” larkspur, sweet peas, snap dragons, poppies, plus several more varieties. I’m crossing my fingers that they’ll make it!🤞🏻
That’s great! Wishing you the best of luck with them!
Planning to do the same
Ahh youve made my sunday again with your video ❤ thank you!

A very welcome video on a cold dark day. ❤ I might try the snapdragons and larkspur, although I've never planted either before. Thanks!
Love your vids,get tonnes of good info xxx💖
You are doing a great job thank you.
Hello lovely lady 😘. I down some sweet peas today x
I have a similar last frost date to you. I started snapdragons & sweet peas today. It will be interesting to see if mine grow as well as yours.
That’s great, good luck with them - I can’t wait to have flowers again this summer!

@@bloomandgray I agree Sarah, nice to have some plants started again. Good to see the mornings and evenings getting lighter now to.

Been trying multiple times to get some larkspur and snapdragons going since the end of november but got nothing so far
