Listening again !
I love your channel specially when I’m driving. I’m just listening 👂 very good information.
Good morning from Kentucky! If I didn’t plant my cool flowers in the fall. How can I do them now? The seed need cold! How long do they need that?
This method sounds area specific. Sweet Williams are a perennial that I know winters over; snapdragons are on the edge and sweet peas I hear can rot if too wet.
The weather is a major issue for Z5a, WI. The last two winters have been extremely warm and winter sow projects do not fare well. Right now we have been 15-20 higher than normal since end of January. We have now hit 60*F in mid February! And will dive into teens sometime at night.
If we are talking winter sowing cut annual flowers there is nothing that will survive this as they would germinate too soon in seed form and transplants would rot and freeze just like winter sowing has done. There is no way even transplants would survive here in the method described. The weather we have is late March/April temps and this is after one week of subzero in January.
Winter sowing in containers has turned into spring sowing. Our temps went in reverse last fall-
Halloween-36
Thanksgiving-41
Christmas-52 And Rain!
January-30s with 3rd week of -20-then back to 30s and continues to climb to 60s mid/late February.
None of this is normal and we can still get a lot of snow (Normally) through to April with a mid May last frost.
I think another thing is micro climates as you live in town. Town, cities all stay warmer. And with the snow so wet from warmer temperatures the hoops will not stay up.
