Happy Spring says the old goat! 🌱🌸🌱
Old Goat is on the shelf “so excited it’s spring”.
Watching my first seedlings pop up!
So excited it’s Spring..so am I ole Goat!!!
Just swing by and picked up a double wheel hoe last Friday. Got it home and used it till I didn't have enough daylight nor garden space left. It's an amazing tool!!
Good stuff!
"Leggy plants are ALWAYS a light issue" Amen, Greg! That sums it up perfectly! Great show, as always! Thanks for what y'all do for us!!

Loved the show and great information. The old goat is hidden well. He is behind mama Hoss hiding behind the sign.
God Bless the Hoss folks. They have completely changed my gardening experience. Born & rasied in Waveland, Ms... could gadren whenever I wanted too. Married Navy Officer.... this fella has moved me to every yankee state.... West coast to East Coast... my gardens were terrible. I couldn't grow anything but flowers... most times.
Garden veggies just failed.... Once, I found the Hoss folks... I learned everything I was doing wrong.
Thank you, Thank you!!!
I bought Hoss Kodiak Brown Mustard (cover crop), Garlic (looking great), Potatoes (planted last wk) and seeds (which are being germinate as we speak).... They're the only folks I buy from now.
I might actually get to harvest onions this year!!! Holy Cow.
The Old Goat is behind the rectangle sign.

I love the row by row show! The old goat is behind the so excited its spring sign.
Thanks for watching!
I just love y'all so much! Every show is always informative and inspiring, and you always joke with each other. I got my brassicas bundle today. I ordered late on the 20th, and got them in 2 days. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THE PLANTS ARRIVED FRESH AND BEAUTIFUL!! They looked like they were just pulled from the trays and brought to my doorstep. I planted all of them except for some kale and cabbage. I spritzed the remainder with water, wrapped them back up, and they will get planted tomorrow. I will be ordering some of your trays for seed starting. I was really impressed with the root system on the plants. All were growing to a perfect point. I loved getting outside, and I got dirty, lol. Your company, and both of you ABSOLUTELY ROCK!!
Woo Hoo! We appreciate your support @destinyandpurpose 🌱 Doesn't it always make you feel better getting outside in the dirt?! Happy Friday!
@@gardeningwithhoss Always! Dirt is good for what ails ya, 😄

Hi guys! I thought of you this morning, when I was reading a plant sheet on cucurbits from University of Illinois. (I live in NC), anyway ...here is a joke from the bottom of the above mentioned article...
Knock, knock
Who's there?
Cantaloupe
Cantaloupe who?
Cantaloupe tonight; dad has the car!
Looking forward to the next Row by Row!
Well, the Old Goat is behind the "So Excited it's spring" sign behind Mama Hoss on the 2nd shelf. My best solution to leggy plants has been to keep them close to my seed starting LED grow lights once they emerge from the soil. I have high intensity LED sunlight spectrum balanced grow lights and this has been the best solution to prevent leggy plants I've found (mine are T5 replacement type LED's). Once the first set of true leaves emerge, I start to water/fertilize with a 25 to 50% solution of "Jack's 3-2-1" and as the plants grow, keep them close to the LED lights (start at 25% fertilizer strength and as they grow increase to 50% solution at their 150ppm fertigation rate). LED grow lights are so much brighter and less expensive to run and like Greg said, you can get all sorts of "spectrum" type combinations (color of the light). Plus they run so much cooler until you get into the super high powered LED lights which need a heat sink and fans (usually for serious indoor full size plant growing). Instead of moving my lights up and down, I have foam spacers that I put under the plant trays to move them closer to the lights. That lets me have trays that have more than one type/size/age plant under the same light setup and each tray is a custom distance from the lights. My spacers are 1" thick, so adjustment is easy to keep the plants thick, stocky and happy. I made a dedicated seed starting stand from a chrome wire rolling shelf unit with 3 sets of LED lights over each level. Works well for multiple trays of the 12 or 24 cell Hoss trays and all the PropTek trays/flats as well. I run my lights on a timer from 7AM to 11PM (16 hours a day) and some plants remain under the lights even after up-potted from the multi-cell trays until they are moved outside to harden off before planting.
great tips
Old goat is behind so excited it's spring sign.thanks for the info.tomatoe plants got leggie on me.i will start over

Thank you for sharing this information with us!

My plugs arrived yesterday and they are super nice, Thanks. Old goat behind sign behind Mama Hoss's left shoulder. Yall have a Blessed day.
Glad to help
My grandma and grandpa never had heat lamps or heat pads and used old milk cartons to start tomatoes in and everything else by seed in the soil. They always had beautiful gardens ! And survived on them.
There are many things you can direct seed and we do that as well. They are certainly many different ways to start seeds. Love to hear how our elders did things.
@@gardeningwithhoss true ! They didnt have access to these things we have today ! Lots of things today and availability to their wisdom ! We have the best of it all

As always another informative as well as entertaining video. We use T5 grow lights and we have been quite pleased with them for years. Every now and again we do run into the leggy plant issue. In about to or three weeks we will be starting our peppers and tomatoes indoors. Definitely going to follow your directions, Thank You. The Old Goat got a bit craftier this week.

It was 84 in eastern NC today, but I still have my plug trays under grow lights. We'll see highs in the 50s again soon, and the trays are a little easier to manage indoors. Old Goat is hiding behind the spring sign.

The Old Goat is hiding behind the sign that says "So excited it's spring we wet our plants.". I just put our edamame plants under the grow light today.

Love that!
Hi you two! I've had many leggy plants 😞 It's good to learn tips on prevention. (By the way, I see Old Goat behind the wetting your plant sign).
We really need a lid for the 172 cube tray
I put screws on the floor joists in my basement bought some s hooks and chain the flats set on some old Masonite on the floor. When I need to raise the light I just move the s hook up. Been doing it this way 3 yrs now.
