I love your videos! I have learned so much about how to collect and sow seeds from you. My husband says I'm virtual gardening, but I tell him I'm learning!! My goal this year is to only go to the nursery to look! I have successfully collected impatients, wave petunias, coleus, and begonias from my plants from last year, and my germination rate has been so good that I have enough plants for my family and neighbors! I did purchase a few other seeds that I did not have but next year I will have seeds from my new plants to sow. You are definitely my go to person for seed collecting! I also use your suggestion of keeping a list on the Google Sheets which is perfect to organize and add notes for next year. I have even started mixing my own potting mix from your videos. Thank you for sharing all your information! It's much appreciated!!
Hi Lisa. Thank you so much for your kind words. It makes me so happy that my videos inspire you. After college, I was very frugal-minded and after having 2 kids, I really learned how to save money where I could. Gardening is therapy for my body, mind & soul, but it doesn't have to be an expensive hobby! I'm sure your garden will look beautiful this year with all that you are growing. Happy gardening, friend! 😊♥
Thank you for taking the time to let us know, I recently planted lavender and was disappointed with the low germination rate. This is very helpful information.
Thank you, I do also sprout seeds on paper towels in plastic bag!! I get good germination most seeds; I need to read more about the seeds that need to be cold for a few weeks first; makes sense for some seeds I've tried over the years that didn't come up...now I see why with your information today!! Happy growing, watching you from front range of Colorado today 3/1/424 2 feet of snow here and still going :} one of our spring dumps to give the trees and yards the much needed moisture! God bless and have a great rest of your week.
I am not even all the way through your video and have already found it so informative. This is my first time starting lavender from seed and you have answered most, if not all of my questions. Prior to viewing your video, I did stratify my seeds for much longer than you did but I'm not really sure that matters. Many others say 4-6 weeks of stratification. This process is supposed to replicate winter which is several months anyway. My questions began once I was germinating my seeds. I did as you did and was worried about how long my germinated seeds were taking to grow. I actually brought them with me to and from work so I could keep an eye on them. I now know that what I've done should be successful and I will return to view your video time and time again. Thank you! Kathy
Hi there. Thank you for your comment. It sounds like you are on the right track. I was so surprised to see how slowly some of the seeds have germinated. In fact, I still have some that are still just starting to germinate in my sandwich bag! Good luck with your lavender and I hope you have many plants this year. 💜😊
Hi Vita, Again another great video. I did the exact same thing as you did for starting my lavender and had great results. My plants are now over 1 inch tall and doing well. You will have beautiful lavender. Nice job.
Thanks so much, Glenda. ♥ That's great that you had success with your lavender. I have always loved the scent of lavender and I can't wait to grow it out in my garden! 😊
English Lavender when from a reputable supplier that has fresh seeds don’t need stratification nor light. They will germinate without either at a great rate. They do love the heat though so a germination heat mat is great. Yours will grow faster if you continue to use a heat mat through out their growth before you transplant. They like 80-85
Great info on lavender. I finally know what I did wrong last year - planted them outside too early. Love the close ups on the seedling transplants 👍. Very well done video 😍 thank you 🎉
I’ve sown Lavender indoors from seed, I got some decent results. I live in Alberta, Canada, zone 3b so it is more of an annual here, it’s much more cost effective to grow from seed.
Hi Alli! Which kind of lavender have you grown from seed? I believe if you plant out Munstead lavender in the early spring and give it the right kind of sandy soil, plant it in full sun and one inch above soil level, it may just overwinter for you. It's worth giving it a try for your zone 3b garden. I agree with you that growing lavender from seed is cost effective. It's such a pretty plant and I think every garden deserves to have at least one! 💞😊🪻
@ hi, I’ve grown both the Munstead and Hidecote, neither overwintered for me but that year was especially cold here. I usually try to grow some from seed in February indoors in my grow room to plant in the garden in May. 😊
This is going to be the year the lavender will sprout! Just hope no one throws my bag of seeds away that's in the fridge. Thanks for the info. Forgot they needed light. Saved me from that mistake.
I'm a first time gardener and I'm trying the winter sow method - although it is known not to grow well in my area. I THINK I see a little green poking through the soil. I just read from a regional FB group that my area will have a better chance with Spanish Lavender (I have English)- but still would be a long shot. If I'm not successful this year, I may try the Spanish Lavender next year.
Definitely give Lavender a try again if it doesn't work out for you this year. It's so worth it. You're smart in wanting to plant the Lavender that grows best in your area. Best of luck and enjoy your first season as a gardener. You'll be hooked. I know I am! 😊♥
Thank you for this fantastic informative video. I purchased 20000 English lavender seeds. Can’t wait until 2 years from now. They should be a decent size by then. I will be following your directions to the letter. 😊❤
Great video! I’ve found that English lavendar self sows into gravel pathways quite well. I’m always on the look out for the seedlings in summer thing so I can pot them up. I’ve sown some fern leaf or Egyptian lavender this year that has grown quickly and flowers the first year. It doesn’t do so well in our wet winters tho!
I was gifted a munstead. I thought I had killed it, but I believe it's coming back up from the root, or self-seeded somehow. I'll know when it flowers if it is. I'm also glad to know of the color difference as I've also winter-sowed directly in the garden the English lavender. Had a tough time with the i.d of the plant, but think I found it now.
Hi there,thankyou for making an informative video..I love to listen to people that have experimented with growing seeds.. I live in England & most of the seeds we buy don't need to be put in fridge (the stratification bit).. I have planted some seeds,but they are still really small,growing slow lol.. I even tried putting them in the fridge &think I ruined them.. But it's about finding what method is best for you,what works for one might not work for another.. This is the first video I have watched,but you saying lavender been quite hard to grow,have you tried rosemary from seed??..I have managed to grow some from cuttings,it took me long enough though.. Thankyou so so much for sharing such valuable information.. Have a great day 🍄☮️🌺🦋🍄☮️🌺🦋
Hi there! You are correct in that lavender seedlings grow very slowly! I grew rosemary from seed many years ago. I'll have to try it again, perhaps this winter. Be well, friend! 😊🌻
That's wonderful! Did you use fresh seed or did you buy a packet of seeds and just plant them straight in the ground. I'm just curious. Are they still pretty small?
@@budgetgardeningvita I got the seed packet from Lowe’s and started them in a cup outside. It didn’t take too long to germinate but yes they are still pretty small
I have grown both lavender and delphiniums with winter sowing. Had maybe 5 or 6 plants and they winter kill easily here in Central Montana. This was not a good year for gardening. Cold, windy spring and our only good rain happened 10 days ago.
Hi, similarly to my delphinium seeds, I did the moist towel method in the fridge for 4 weeks. None of them germinated in the towel but I sowed them in a jiffy starter kit. After a week, I do have have of the cells germinated with at least 1 sprout even though I put 3-4 seeds per cells. So not as high a rate compared to my delphiniums, but maybe they will continue to sprout over the coming weeks. When should I remove the humidity dome for lavender?
Wow, I started 60 seeds in the fridge thinking I might get a couple to sprout. After 3 weeks all but maybe two had sprouted! What to do with all the plants???! 😂😅This coming from a girl with a “black” thumb and can’t grow a thing.
Lol. That's awesome! I say make a beautiful lavender hedge with all of your plants! It doesn't sound like you have a "black" thumb to me. Happy gardening, friend! 💜😊
I'm from St Lucia and have been trying to get them to survive. They reach a certain size and die off. I'm praying the seedlings I have survive this time
Hi there! Lavender can be very tricky to grow as they are a Mediterranean plant and like sandy, well-drained soil. I hope your seedlings do better this time around, friend.🙏🏼 💗
Hi Fred! It really will depend on the variety of lavender. Most lavender is hardy in zones 5-9 whereas Louisiana is on the higher end of that growing zone (you're somewhere between zones 8-10). Spanish and French lavender tend to do better than English lavender in Louisiana. I hope that helps. 😊🪻
First time with Lavender this year. I hope the seeds aren't as difficult as dichondra (silver falls). Those are incredibly difficult to germinate. I tried over a hundred harvested from prior season so they were fresh and only 3 germinated. I recycled the soil and they finally germinated many months later in other plant pots. Very very unpredictable plants and they grow ultra slowly to boot. I even tried with a heated mat and still nada until months later.
I hope you have better luck with your Lavender seeds. I collected Dichondra Silver Fall seeds last year but didn't have a chance to sow them. That's too bad that they were so hard for you to grow from seed. I'll try to give them a try this winter. Fingers crossed! 🤞🏼😊🌼
@@budgetgardeningvita Good luck with the silver falls. Despite youtube videos saying they're easy and germinate quickly my experience has been the total opposite.
I'll have to try Hidcote lavender. It's an English lavender that's hardy in my growing zone of 5b, so it should survive my winters here. Thanks for the suggestion, friend!
I hoped to find info on germinating lavender with gibberellic acid. It's what the seed packet says, so ordered 5 gram bottle of it. Not sure how much to dilute the acid to soak em... Any ideas? Anyone?
Hi there! Unfortunately I do not know anything about germinating lavender with gibberellic acid. I suggest you try growing some of your seeds without it but making sure you give the seeds a cold treatment first. I'd love to hear an update on how you make out. 😊🌺
@@budgetgardeningvita Will do, I scattered maybe a 100 seeds on a paper towel and dusted some GA2 or whatever over with a toothpick as an other youtuber suggested. No one showed mixing powder with alcohol or water. Wet towel with rubbing alcohol, and then water. In a ziplock. Been two day, I guess it's a growth hormone? I have no idea how long to wait till start looking for roots from these micro seeds. All new for me.
I have never had success with Lavender from seed. I have a dozen growing along my front walk, but all of them have been from starts or ONE cutting, that I had success.
I have failed at starting lavender from seed for 3 years!!! I finally have germination on my 8 th try. They sprouted in the refrigerator after 2 weeks. I do think buying fresh seeds are important.
Yay! I'm so happy for you. Lavender is the best! I agree with you that the fresher the lavender seed, the better your germination rate will be. Very true! 😊
I had to comment again after reading one of your comments,you were replying to someone,Lisa I think.. I find some channels,even though I enjoy them,there garden & technique is way way out of my budget.. Don't get me wrong there gardens,mini farms 😅😅are absolutely stunning..But I can imagine the cost as well even though many of them have money saving suggestions it would still be out of my budget to do..

But now I would like to either make my own rooting hormone or buy a decent one for now as I want to grow root a beautiful red maple tree..I know you can do the cutting different ways air layer graft & that,which I want to learn,but I have got the cutting now,I get to excited😅😅.. I just appreciate you considering people's budgets,thankyou,😍🫶😍🫶
This comment just made my entire day! Thank you so much! I truly do love sharing videos on how to garden on a budget because a lot of what I do is on a budget. Gardening is a hobby but it doesn't have to be an expensive hobby. There are so many ways to save money while gardening. Speaking of which, I haven't done it myself, but I've heard that if you had a willow tree, you could make your own rooting hormone with it. Please look into that. Maybe you can find a cheap willow tree on Facebook Marketplace. Or better yet, see if you can find someone that has a willow tree and take cuttings of it and root them in water. They root super easily in water! Good luck, my friend. Gardening is truly therapy for the soul! 💞😊
