Thank you so much for this!! I have struggled with stock and am excited to start next year!!
I grew up growing flowers next door to my grandma... wishing now that I would have paid more attention to how she did everything 🌻 Thanks for teaching us here and helping me fill in the gaps of knowledge. I've followed you now for years and it's great to see how you've grown into making really warm videos! Bravo!!
I loved the detail you provided in this video. Thanks so much for sharing your expertise.❤️
Thank you for doing this series of videos on growing various seeds for cooler climates. I find it SO incredibly helpful and t's hard to find this type of info for those of us in Northern Climates!
Thank you for the detailed instructions on growing stock seeds and seedlings. I really appreciate that you explain the temperature requirements, as I live in subtropical Australia and knowing the germination temperature really helps me succeed with these beautiful flowers. I am only growing in my home garden.
I've been watching gardening channels ALL winter and I don't know why the common sense of replanting duplicate sprouts in the ungerminated cells didn't occur to me or get mentioned anywhere else, but thank goodness I saw this video 😅
Thanks for describing precisely what “hardening off” means. It how it feels. Brilliant! Never had it explained that way before. Thank you!
Your explanations are so useful for planting flowers at scale. In 2023 I am relying mainly on your videos to guide my 4th year of gardening. I will be starting 600-1000 plants from seed, and also will be transplanting perennials like lavender and echinacea purpurea that I over-wintered from last year. Thank you always!
Just found your channel. Thank you for providing such good detailed instructions. This will be my first year growing stock from seed. NOT my first year seed starting. Usually just grow veggies.
Thanks for all the good information shared. LOVE your place! Saludos
Thanks Jen. Adam is looking great!
Fertilizing stock plants
In Florida it gets hot fast! I started seeds last year late in February and germination was really good but never got to bloom!!
I plan to start them in fall this year!!
So so helpful. Thank you!
Informative video. Thx!
Very detailed! Thank you!
Such a helpful video! I’m a home gardener in Z3 , first time Katz grower, and looks like next week is go-time. It feels crazy to be planing out seedlings so early. Even though daytime temps are ideal, and hard frosts are less, the ground temps are still very cold. We’ll see how it goes!
I'm so glad you shared the "surface sow method" for stock 🪻 It works great for me, as well! I think Antique Pink is my favorite, but I love them all 💗
Great video and thanks for the tip to surface sow stock! As you said, the seed packets say to cover. I sowed lots in soil blocks and got great germination. I sowed in cell packs too but not so great germination because I covered them!
It’s looks lovely. I started mine a little late, but I’m still hopeful 😅❤ I live in 8b it’s gets hot here fast.
Very good advice, I have tried according to the seeds box instructions and I had less than 50% germination. I will try your way now, although it is almost mid of March
Started 9 stock inside with my other stuff. Plants are yellowed, tiny, etc. I can't imagine it's too warm. Lost 3. Super weird. Maybe it's the seed but otherwise, IDK. Putting them outside with the snaps early in case they like it.
This was really great info, wish you had uploaded when you were sowing. I didn't get any blooms last summer, guessing I may not again. Kind of discouraging thinking I may be wasting seeds, I'm on the shore in Maryland, hot & humid here.
This is also why you need to grow early. Stock loves the cool weather, and if it gets over 60° it will not flower.

I'm sure that was my issue last yr, guessing it will be a repeat for me, but I sowed them today anyway. Funny thing tho, I had one survive this winter...I'm on the shore in Maryland, only had very cold night temps maybe 5 - 7 nights here & there. Noticed I have buds on that one. I don't know if the flowers will be nice, but it's fun to wait an see. Thanks for the comment.
@Wende It liked that cool weather.😊 Yeah, I'm secession planting this month, but trying stock past March will most likely get too hot and not flower or be short. It's a tricky one good luck to you.
@@marykennedy3351
Thanks, thinking I'll winter sow those this time.
@@itsmewende Maryland here, too. I'm thinking this is a very difficult flower for us and I'm going to have to build skills and work up to it. A couple of falls ago, I direct sowed them outside (but not surface sow...). Nothing came up. I know we had a mild winter this year, but we get up to 60 degrees quickly in the spring! I'm just a home gardener, but it looks like it will have to be started inside and then put out in... February??? with cloches going on and off with frost advisories? Definitely have to work up to this. Well we can't have everything, and being able to leave the dahlias in the ground is nice. 🥲
Yes I do not cover mine either and get better germination that way
Wish you would mention WHY you go with Katz series. What is different about it from the others. And, which varieties are branching?
Is it ok to put the seeded trays on heat mats, or will that hinder germination?
Hi! Thanks for the informative video. Lots of good info. I have a question about planting in succession. What is the reasoning behind doing this with a biennial. Will the plants actually flower at different times next year? What am i missing here. Thanks for your time.
You might want to mention your growing zone so people don't plant their's too early in a lower zone. I made that mistake before.
Updated to include in the title.
Her video's title indeed mentioned zone 5.
How far apart do you plant them in the ground?
Do you use a heat mat?
Good morning Jenn! How far apart do you plant your stock to get the best stem length? Thank you for another great video.
Hi Rose! We plant them 9” apart, but you could also do 6” to increase their stem length.
It would be nice if You can mention your zone and your last frost date so that we can adjust to ours.
It’s in the title and in the description
Hi from the southern hemisphere 👋 I’m growing an autumn succession of stock at the moment but I’ve got some very elongated seedlings - they aren’t flopping over or anything and have a strong light source - but they’ve been exposed to some high temps this week so I think that’s the problem. Would you chuck them out and start again or see how they go? Only about a week old.
They’re probably okay unless the stalk is emaciated.
Hi, I’m in zone 9b, if I start the pre-sprouting now in the middle of January iM ok? Do I have to do pre-sprouting?
So stock would be considered a hardy annual?
Do you use vermiculite?
Dang nabbit. Only just seen this. … almost too late …..
Hello! Why did you guys switch to growing only Katz?
We’ve had better luck with it not having stunted growth. It’s one that just seems to works well for our zone.
Do you sprinkle vermiculite on the top of them?
We don’t sprinkle any vermiculite over them. They don’t need it at all.
I have a big question. My daughter is getting married April 26 of 2025. When do I start the seeds to have flowers ready by then? And what other flower I can grow this early to go with it. I am in zone 8a.
Snapdragons
Do you pinch your stock
Any tips for selecting the seedlings that will make double flowers? Followed Johnny's tips but still ! lot of single flowers...
You didn’t talk about the double/single flower issue which is why I watched video….
