September Seed Saving | How To collect/Harvest Flower Seeds

- Collecting and saving flower seed in September is one of my favourite jobs. You can save seed from the flowers that have finished in the cut flower garden, but how do you know when it’s the right stage to do this? I can help you with that in this video. Why save your own seed? Well the seed is fresh and will have very good germination rates when you come to sow it and you can save some money too by not having to order so many seed packets. There is something so nice about going full circle in the growing cycle by collecting your own seeds. September and October during a dry spell are ideal times to save seed. In this video I show you some of the flowers I harvest seed from and how I do it.

I love collecting seeds. It saves so much money and it always great to watch that cycle repeat itself again. Lovely tutorial
Thank you so much for watching. It really is great being able to follow the whole cycle of growing in the garden by saving your own seed and then sowing them. Your right too it does have the added bonus of saving a few pennies too.
This was such a clearly explained video!
Thanks so much 😊 I am glad you enjoyed it.
Sweet pea & marigolds for me Catherine. Thankyou for your video xx
Thanks for watching Kim, sweet peas and marigolds are good ones to save from. My sweet peas are still flowering but will be doing a video about these in the next few weeks hopefully and will get some seed from them then.
Great video, thank you!
Thanks for watching Tina 🙂
Love your videos, thank you. I live in Andalucía, so I imagine that I can sow seeds now, August and keep them outdoors until planting in the ground Feb/March?
Hello, thanks so much for watching. I am glad you have been enjoying the videos. I tend to start my hardy annual seeds in August as it gets pretty cold here quickly and I want to get them established before the frosts. As you will be still quite hot just now you could probably sow seeds later in September. If you sow them too early and it’s warm for a good length of time the plants can really come on and get close to flowering which you want to prevent until next year. Starting yours 6-8 weeks before the weather gets cooler should work well.
Hi Catherine, thanks for such great videos. Can I ask if all the overwintered seedlings are put out in the spring after the last frost? Or can you put them out in spring under cover? Just thinking about how much room there is in the green house! thanks again for a wonderful channel. I dont want to put them out in winter.
Hi Tracy, thanks for watching 😊 I overwinter the seedlings in the greenhouse and then the hardy annuals I start hardening off for a couple of weeks in March and if the soil isn’t frozen get them out late March, early April under low fleece caterpillar tunnels. When the weather improves the fleece comes off. Our last frost date isn’t until late May usually so I don’t plant out anything tender until the start of June. Getting the hardy annuals outside in early April though frees up room in the greenhouse for more tender seedlings.
