    My heart breaks for you & your family. You are a boss lady following through with the commitment you made to this channel, your viewers & yourself. I honestly couldn’t have done what you did today. Here’s a virtual high five & hug. I’ve been gardening for (50+) years & I learned a few new tricks from you today. I thank you for your commitment, your knowledge & your time.

    So sorry for loss today. So hard to say goodbye to our four legged family members. Concerning your comment about selling flowers, you might consider cutting pictures of the flower out of seed catalogs along with a description about the flower to show folks. Celosia are so pretty, everyone would love them for sure!! One really good thing you said was write down what happens. My garden journal is one of best garden "tools"! Great video, thank you for time today. God's Blessing to you and your family.

    -Hey Mack. All your friends and family enjoyed the safety you provided. Now you can retire as family hero and finally get some of the rest you've earned. Thank you.
    -I have yarrow which doesn't grow thick in pots as much as slowly spreading in a bed under an inch of soil over a few years. Survives frost well. Pretty flower clusters and nice herb scent. Variety I have is about 3 ft tall.
    -Thanks for the diligence in sharing and continuing to post info. Taking your own advice....Just get out there and do it! Thank you.

    Watched this yesterday and then had to come back tonight and leave a comment bc I'm finding the organization of seeds and when to start them that you talk about very helpful. Between my older seeds and the ones I purchased this year, my seed collection is large. So I went through and pulled out what I would like to plant and organized them by when to start. They are rubber banded, labeled according to how many weeks out, or direct seed. Tomorrow I'm getting my calendar from the Dollar Tree/Dollar Twenty-Five Tree to finish out my timeline. Turns out I have way more seeds it's safe to direct sow here in 8a than I thought, plus I can stagger them which will help with my seed starting set-up. Since I'm a very visual person, your way is super helpful! Thank you!

    • @BerkeleyFarms

    Hey y'all, This is the first time seeing your channel. I'm so sorry for your loss. We are given stewardship of our animals by God. We are tasked with providing them love, food, safety and shelter as they may need while in our care. Yes we will lose some and it will hurt but we still have so many more and time does not stop so on we go. Blessings on your coming days. I love the seed starting I am in Minnesota nw nothin but ice and snow now here so all I have is herb garden inside now. I will be starting sweet potatoes in cups to grow slips, and onion seeds in trays on Feb 16th every year. Most all other seeds I will get started on March 17th St. Patrick's day every year. I am excited to catch up on your other videos. God bless take care bye for now

    Celosia: add a fun feature: create curiosity with a sign including information about it and pictures of how it looks in the beginning-budding- and full bloom. Like “specials” in restaurants.

    @rebeccagray2591 2 роки тому

    Thank you for breaking everything down as to when and how to sow the seeds and when would be the time to actually plant them into our gardens. It will help me know when is the best time to start all of my different seeds.
    Last year was the first time I grew my own vegetable seeds and I just started them all at the same time, not even thinking that they are all different types of plants. Having you explain it the way to break it down and also using a calendar will help me a lot. I appreciate you taking the time to teach and explain it the way you did. We are keeping you in our prayers, so sorry to hear of the passing of your four legged fir baby. ❤️

A quick thought on the flower starts: Since some customers may not be familiar with celosia or cosmos, produce a 8 x10 colored picture of them to post with the starts. Celosia are so beautiful…I can’t imagine they would not sell well.
