Yup I'm in Horseshoe Valley, Ontario. I don't like to start my seeds too early cause I find they get long and leggy trying to get to the light. I'll start late March or early April to get ready for transplanting in the garden 3rd week of May.
@@joeclark4313I'll be starting a bit late this year cause I'll be building some raised beds and installing weed block so I have a lot of work to do before transplanting. The times about right to start though.
We got one of those for our granddaughter thinking it would be easy for her. We only had 50% germination in the Jiffy tray unfortunately...hope you have better luck. Smokey was feeling his wild side 🦁
Is that right eh, I’ll have to keep an eye on it but lots of seeds have germinated but haven’t checked if all. I’m sure I’ll have an update video at some point. Have a good one, Chad.
@@HiddenSpringFarm ours had issue with the weird wrapping stuff that the pucks were encapsuled in...held too much water. Wish you the best with yours and hope yours grows abundantly
@@grace4five maybe, did you put 15 cups of water though? Is there water in the bottom of the pan when you’re done? I just bought it and used it in a few days so I don’t know if age is a factor.
I noticed with mine the water wasn’t warm enough to expand them so I had to dump the cooler water and got hotter water. Then they started to expand. My flower seedlings are now getting slimy and dying tho so idk about this. First time ever doing anything garden wise.
Enjoyed
😂 Love this! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed!
Thanks for the informative video! I hope you have a good planting season this year. I’m doing Cilantro, Carrots, Peppers, and Lettuce so far.
Best of luck, someone told me rabbits like parsley so we’re gonna grow a little more of that.
Great video I’m doing what you are doing. I bought the kit today.
Awesome, best of luck 👌
@@HiddenSpringFarm I am seeing results with my tomatoes.
I use the same trays and the same seeds 😁 A little hello from Northern New-Brunswick
We’ll see how these trays fare this year. I have lots of seeds coming up already. Have a good one bud.
Amazing hidden from
So you are obviously in the North, I'm in NY. When would you begin the process? Awesome informative video. Thank You!

@@HiddenSpringFarm I'm on Long Island, NY and it's March 20 so I'm thinking "Go time". BTW nice Garth Brooks knockoff!

Do you water regularly after your pods are planted? How often? Thank you.
I water when I see them dry. It depends on how humid your place is but for us it was every day or two.

*I tried growing 74 leghorn chicks two years ago and none of them came up. Do you think I planted them too deep?*
Haha hardy har har 😂
First comment
How long does it take for pods to expand?
Not long really, I remember I left it for hours but I didn’t need to cause I think it was less than 30 mins.
Mine have been soaking for 12 hours and do not look like yours at all. Wondering if my kit is too old… Could that possibly be an issue?
