In the interest of full disclosure, I went for my daily five mile hike immediately prior to filming this video. I was wearing a winter hat (still 30F here). I intended on keeping the hat on but the humidity was too much for me and I tossed it. I had NO idea how much my hair actually looked like "I just got back from a five mile hike." At least it's a true story! LOL Good thing I don't embarrass easily.
I read this before the video started and was like I am sure it’s not that bad. It started and I take it back 😂. You are still beautiful and your seedlings look amazing 😉
When you mention pinching your snaps, I think of the Northlawn Flower Farm channel showing how to ROOT the snapdragon cuttings. It could give you another succession without the seed starting. She used a little rooting hormone on the pinched off portions.
@@FlowerHillFarm wonderful! Probably my favorite videos are you just chatting at the camera while you make bouquet after bouquet. I don't know why it's just so much fun to watch. Gives me ideas for my own bouquets as well. 💐
My callendulla is doing the same thing! It's growing buds! I got to get them outside but I kept having really cold weekends. I'm shooting for Sunday now.
As someone really new to flower growing I love seeing how you tackle the process. But also the difference when growing for cut flowers - your always so down to earth and just a pleasure to watch. Sadly as I'm in England no chance I'll find my way over to you. Thank you for your company this evening nonetheless
3:20 Your lessons are starting to persuade me to try out seed starting with soil blocks because soil blocks reduce the need to keep all those seed starting plastic trays and containers
I noticed that you were growing the blue sweet peas. They are considered perennial sweet peas and are a completely different species from the typical sweet pea. Everything looks fantastic by the way 🥰🌱🌈
Ugh! No, I won't be protecting them. We do not have a rabbit issue here. They're happy to stay in the woods so far! Fingers crossed! They don't bother the wild white yarrow we have growing all over the fields.
Thanks so much for the update!! I love your enthusiasm about your seedlings! I'm a couple weeks behind you on pretty much everything, so I love seeing what I can look forward to! Can't wait for more!
Thanks so much for sharing, especially the gem of what you do when you have lots of seeds to sow quickly. I feel like I’m playing major catch up this being my first year of gardening other than a few herbs, tomatoes and peppers. Thank you so so much. But one thing, I had had trouble focusing on the content because I literally could not stop laughing. You crack me up. Big hugs from zone 6b NY😘👏❤️
I absolutely love love love coleus. My mother does the most wonderful groupings with it. I absolutely love all you are growing, but coleus just makes me swoon.
I am sooooo jealous of you! I wish I had your grow room, not for selling cut flowers but just for my personal use. Thank you Nicole for showing us your beautiful seedlings, I am green 💚 with envy. 🌷💚🙃
It’s refreshing that you’ve got the early spring what we really look like farming presence! This is what I look like with no hike except I’m rocking mom bun with a bow and always sweating and talking to myself all day covered in soil and also am growing in my basement this year! This was one of your best videos and ur killing it already for season 2022! 🔥🔥🔥 I know this is just a great video of your truest self! So excited for this season!
I’m so sad I didn’t start lizzy’s this year. Maybe I will be able to find a couple plants at a garden center. I feel like I’m missing out 😄 love the bells! 🍀
I am sooo amazed at the few weeks growth of all your seedlings. I do have a heat mat to aid with germination but I don’t have grow lights. I just take my seedlings out since our temps have been 60-70days 45-53nights and we hardly had any frost, even light ones. But my seedlings are growing so slow like phlox, feather celosia, blackeyed susan vines, etc. The ones doing good are tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, cucumbers. Only flowers blooming right now are roses, scentsation nicotiana and sweet william. Maybe I should invest on good grow lights for next season. Thanks Nicole! - Zee, N. Cali zone10a
OMG love to watch you have so much positive energy. I had a few baby snaps from fall. I grew them just cut them back. I used your method to sprout tomato seeds. Worked very well. I grew tropical hibiscus grow so easy. I will have a sea of purple petunias and pansies in memory of my SISTER. Looking forward to your next video. I'm in NE Ohio by lake Erie growing zone 6a.
You're such a nut! Thank you for your silliness! Your flowers are going to be off the hook! Thank you for sharing the progression, I have a lot to do. 😳😆
Love your videos 😍❤️💕!!! Also, I’m putting my guess in the hat that the mystery seedling is a dahlia seedling 😄💕. Thank you for sharing all of your accomplishments and experiences with growing! You inspire me all the time ❤️💕!
You're are so relatable and I appreciate that even pros start some things earlier than they should. I'm new at gardening and started things too soon and am now trying to keep them alive till they can go out . Whoops - happy I'm not alone!
I love it all! Each and every single one! So fabulous! This video really got me wanting to throw some seeds around!!...Well you know what I mean. I'm getting ready to hit it hard next week! My huge Perennial Order is starting to come in all next week. Things are getting exciting. I'd be more excited if I had half of the Snap Dragons you have! Girl! SNAP! I'm going to do a bunch more SD (Garden variety) in my Tender Seedling Winter Sowing. I have Madame Butterfly and Costas started inside. Yasss! 🦘🌱🌺🪴🍌🍌🍌
Love love love the updates! Jealous with how amazing your seedlings looks. Some of mine did great, but others are waiting for me to crack the code on seedling health. I am also jazzed for all my yarrow! One of the only things that are truly deer proof in my area
Thank you for sharing every step of the way of your germination and planting of your plants. I have learned so much and done better with my own seedlings. Hugs and love from Texas!
I am so taking half my basement and in process of making a grow area like yours. You have inspired me to to it seeing how awesome your plants are doing.
Yowza, Nicole your seedlings look fantastic! I started my Lizzies on 1/10 & they are still tiny. Started using 'your' fish ferts now so hope that helps. Also, I have 8 Himalayan blue poppy seedlings that are struggling ~hope to get 1 plant to survive anyway. Congrats on your beautiful baby plants!
sooo many seedlings!! And they are all... almost all beautiful!!! I'm with you, I'm planning on having a yarrow patch outside of the farm area that can spread and be happy!
I live in zone 5a and have had very similar weather patterns to yours…teens to 20’s over night, 30-50’s day! I said heck with it and did a test on some of my seedlings. I put snaps and sweet peas out in my whatever you want to call it(one of those cheap green plastic greenhouses.) I believe you have one? They are about two weeks and so far all doing just fine. No harvest cloth. Just cell trays 🤷♀️
it all looks so amazing! Calendula is one of the few things I start in 2 inch blocks, they grow fast and they want a big root system. It’s SO hardy though, I find it keeps blooming until the temp dips well below freezing (-5ºC). Bump those babies up!! 👋 Hi from Nova Scotia
I’m so envious of your snapdragons! I’m a total newbie at growing snapdragons from seed and I accidentally murdered all of them by putting them outside too early & for too long to harden off. Whoopsies. Lesson learned! Omg how you said tangly mess made me laugh out loud. 😂🤣
Your grow room looks beautiful with all your plants!! So many people are going to get to enjoy beautiful flowers from your farm. I'm checking everyday for your videos to see what I should be doing and what I can learn. :) Question...I have just purchased shelves to use for starting my seeds. Do you use LED shop lights?
I’m not having a problem at all with my baby’s breath. I started them on 2/23 an mine are in various stages with the biggest being on their 3rd true leaves. But I am just growing the cheap American Seed ones from the dollar store.
So exciting watching this video with all your mini plants already! It’s motivating me to prick out my calendula, grasses and borage seedlings and free up space on my kitchen windowsill to sow some zinnias for the first time. When sowing Zinnia seeds - which is best, channels in a seed tray, soil blocks or 3 inch pots, what does everyone recommend please?
I'm anticipating an explosion of color when those are planted outside. ❇️🌷❇️🌼❇️🌹❇️🌺 I love your videos! I've been feeling way behind on my seed starting. Being a newbie I wanted to start them in late February, but other seasoned seed growers told me it was too early. I don't have heat mats so the trays are huddled around the floor furnace outlet. Trip hazzard. I'm so excited for them to germinate! Glad I won't have to wait long. I planted some blue fama scabiosa. I hope they germinate after hearing of your spotty results. Based on your excitement last year, I ordered some of the starflower scabiosa and I'll start soon, maybe direct seed. Oh, Mrs. Burns lemon basil. Mmm! Come on spring!
Seedling envy here! 2nd year flower farming, 1st year to attempt snapdragons in the Texas warm spring - I mean it is going to be 89 today! Mine might be as tall as yours but not nearly as hearty. Do you think that part of the difference could be I started mine in seed starting mix? Or am I mistaken thinking you start your seedlings from compost in the soil blocks? Love your videos! I hope you know how helpful they are.
Hi Nicole. Would you be willing to show a strawflower seed head-if you have any left-and show us how you got seeds from them? I buy short strawflowers every year from a nursery, and I saved and planted what I thought were seeds, and nothing grew. I’m so disappointed because I can’t find the seeds for the shorter varieties online.
I believe campanula is a biennial. I planted it last year (Zone 4a also) and it did not bloom. It overwintered, I expect blooms later in the season. Crossing fingers!
I also uppotted 2 snapdragons into each cell and was just about to thin, but if you say I don’t have to, I won’t! Can I still pinch them? Also, does this hold true for any other plants do you know? I have a couple coleus in one 2” soil block and don’t want to thin, they’re too cute.
Loved the tour!! I’m looking forward to seeing the blooms. What’s your trick to growing phlox? I tried it for the first time this year and got very little germination.
I got a rogue tomato seed in one of my flower packs. I didn't buy any tomato seeds so I know it wasn't me on accident. So now I'm growing one tomato plant this season lol
Wow!! How can you keep up with all these seedlings!! I hope they all do well outside. Just love, love them!! On a side note... can you share the link for your timer?
Nicole can you link them light's down below, iv checked everyone's and sold out. I got my metal rack from target for 60$ same size silver. I love your racks to so I may get a few like yours! One more thing, will you plant gazinias they are soon pretty, they open with sun close at night and under there long leaves is silver!! How many ft is one of your lites? Please and thank you
Your seedlings look amazing! I’m struggling with trying soil blocks for the first time this year. I’ve been seed starting in cell trays for over 20 years no problem...so not sure how I feel about soil blocking.
What gorgeous seedlings. I love growing coleus from seed but have never seen packages of seed that contain so many varieties. Would you share what seed company those are from please? Look forward to your daily escapades especially with the chickens.
I use big led lights from menards. 10,000 units. 1 light per shelf. My seedlings LUV LUV them. U might take a look. I use those same shelving unit from home depot
I’m in 6a, we juSt had really cold nights too in and around 20*. Hopefully that’s past but the ground looks really dry. Things are coming up but I’m wondering if I should water all my beds outside.. what do you think? It’s supposed to rain tonight but we seem to be missing it all. Also, the thermometers that you’re using in the hoop house, what are they and where to get them please? You went for a 5 mile hike before this?! Would you send me some of that energy? I sure could use it! SUPER WOMAN!!
Would you be willing to share your week by week planting schedule. I am in the same zone as you and it would be really fun to see if we are on the same schedule. Thanks😊
When I start my seeds they do not get this big, even with lights... Do you use liquid fertilizer in them? I have to pot them in bigger sizes quite quickly. ..
Just wanted to say hi from Essex in the UK. I’ve just started my veg garden and I’m using soil blocks for the first time as I’m limited on space. May I ask would you cover all seeds with vermiculite? Or just leave the seeds on top of the soil block with out covering with soil? My tomato seeds have not germinated and only a few lettuces have. Please help. And many happy days growing xxx
I leave most seeds uncovered unless it requires dark for germination. I’ve done tomatoes both ways and didn’t see a difference with germination. Good luck!

You look beautiful as always!!
I love that you just did it - It's like having thousands of people over to your house and not worrying about cleaning!! :)
You got this girl! Nothing to be embarrassed about! 🌷💚🙃
I get a kick out of Serina and Ian with their "I don't care hair, " and yours isn't behaving too badly. 🤣💜
I read this before the video started and was like I am sure it’s not that bad. It started and I take it back 😂. You are still beautiful and your seedlings look amazing 😉
This years flowers are going to be INSANE!! this grow room is just pumping out the starts!!
This is just the tip of the flower iceberg this season! So exciting!
When you mention pinching your snaps, I think of the Northlawn Flower Farm channel showing how to ROOT the snapdragon cuttings. It could give you another succession without the seed starting. She used a little rooting hormone on the pinched off portions.
I'm absurdly excited for this season of your UA-cam channel. One of my favorite shows! 😂
Woohoo! Bring it on. I'm really hoping to increase content this season.
@@FlowerHillFarm wonderful! Probably my favorite videos are you just chatting at the camera while you make bouquet after bouquet. I don't know why it's just so much fun to watch. Gives me ideas for my own bouquets as well. 💐
I love how quirky you are and how happy you are about plants!
Didn't even notice! Too busy gushing over the seedlings 😍
My callendulla is doing the same thing! It's growing buds! I got to get them outside but I kept having really cold weekends. I'm shooting for Sunday now.

That's a Ground Cherry in your Phlox tray.
Your videos are great! I've been learning a ton from you. Thanks!
Loved that you took a bite out of your kale seedlings! 😂 You crack me up Nicole!
😁
I know- I was like what the...oh...Kale.
I noticed that you were growing the blue sweet peas. They are considered perennial sweet peas and are a completely different species from the typical sweet pea. Everything looks fantastic by the way 🥰🌱🌈
I hope your yarrow will be protected. My rabbits LOVED my yarrow. They even took the leaves and used it in their nest!
Ugh! No, I won't be protecting them. We do not have a rabbit issue here. They're happy to stay in the woods so far! Fingers crossed! They don't bother the wild white yarrow we have growing all over the fields.
You're going to love having so much yarrow!!! Loved this video! So much to see!
Thanks so much for the update!! I love your enthusiasm about your seedlings! I'm a couple weeks behind you on pretty much everything, so I love seeing what I can look forward to! Can't wait for more!

I have coleus, they are so worth it and you can overwinter them, take cuttings, etc.
How do they hold up in vase life?
I seriously love your energy and spunk…….cannot wait to see your beautiful gardens this year! 🌼🌸🌺🍅🍆
Coleus make great fillers in flower arrangements. I love coleus.
Great tour, Nicole! You are such an inspiration 🙌🏻🌱🌱🌱😊

Excellent job, Nicole, on your amazing seedlings!
I'm happy for you, you found shelves cheaper this year than last! I went to get 2 more at HD and they went up 75 doll hairs a piece! Woot!!!
I love watching you. I am now addicted but it was from your first video. Thyme is very slow to germinate. Sometimes weeks. Best with heating pad.
Yowza, Nicole your seedlings look fantastic! I started my Lizzies on 1/10 & they are still tiny. Started using 'your' fish ferts now so hope that helps. Also, I have 8 Himalayan blue poppy seedlings that are struggling ~hope to get 1 plant to survive anyway. Congrats on your beautiful baby plants!

You should try planting the pinched portion of the snaps for your next succession... fun experiments!!!!!
I have enough already! I’ve propagated the tops a few times before 👍 I talked about it in a video I think two summers ago! 💐
Thank you so much for this!!
Beautiful!
I absolutely know I will love every video you do. You have your first like…😂
Now to settle back with a cup of ginger tea and watch.
You're the best! Thanks, Lavina !
I'm trying your method for Bells of Ireland, and am excited to pull them out of the fridge tomorrow!

Dried flowers are super popular these days with the whole farmhouse look being “in”
I'm anticipating an explosion of color when those are planted outside. ❇️🌷❇️🌼❇️🌹❇️🌺
I love your videos!
I've been feeling way behind on my seed starting. Being a newbie I wanted to start them in late February, but other seasoned seed growers told me it was too early. I don't have heat mats so the trays are huddled around the floor furnace outlet. Trip hazzard.
I'm so excited for them to germinate! Glad I won't have to wait long.
I planted some blue fama scabiosa. I hope they germinate after hearing of your spotty results.
Based on your excitement last year, I ordered some of the starflower scabiosa and I'll start soon, maybe direct seed.
Oh, Mrs. Burns lemon basil. Mmm!
Come on spring!
Thank you! You passion is so infectious! I love it!
Does rudbeckia need stratified or can it be direct sown??
I just love watching your videos! You are hilarious! ❤️

I buy short strawflowers every year from a nursery, and I saved and planted what I thought were seeds, and nothing grew. I’m so disappointed because I can’t find the seeds for the shorter varieties online.
I was wondering if lupines could be potted up. Thanks for giving me the answer, now I feel confident to pot'em up.
I love your set up
I believe campanula is a biennial. I planted it last year (Zone 4a also) and it did not bloom. It overwintered, I expect blooms later in the season. Crossing fingers!
Hi Bloopsie bear!!! ❤️
How fun are snap dragon leaf undersides being the color of the flowers?!!
I used cold stratification for my liatris and they started germinating TWO days after planting them.
I also uppotted 2 snapdragons into each cell and was just about to thin, but if you say I don’t have to, I won’t! Can I still pinch them? Also, does this hold true for any other plants do you know? I have a couple coleus in one 2” soil block and don’t want to thin, they’re too cute.
You use block soil for most but sometimes you have the typical growing flats - do you have a reason for one or the other?
Marigolds plant well with tomatoes. they act as a deterrent to worms and other bugs.
Loved the tour!! I’m looking forward to seeing the blooms. What’s your trick to growing phlox? I tried it for the first time this year and got very little germination.
I got a rogue tomato seed in one of my flower packs. I didn't buy any tomato seeds so I know it wasn't me on accident. So now I'm growing one tomato plant this season lol
Wow!! How can you keep up with all these seedlings!! I hope they all do well outside. Just love, love them!!
On a side note... can you share the link for your timer?
Had really good germination of my Bells of Ireland using your refrigerator to heat mat process!! Should they be pinched at any point?
Nicole can you link them light's down below, iv checked everyone's and sold out. I got my metal rack from target for 60$ same size silver. I love your racks to so I may get a few like yours! One more thing, will you plant gazinias they are soon pretty, they open with sun close at night and under there long leaves is silver!! How many ft is one of your lites? Please and thank you
Your seedlings look amazing! I’m struggling with trying soil blocks for the first time this year. I’ve been seed starting in cell trays for over 20 years no problem...so not sure how I feel about soil blocking.
What gorgeous seedlings. I love growing coleus from seed but have never seen packages of seed that contain so many varieties.

Kinda looks like basil 🌿 too!
I use big led lights from menards. 10,000 units. 1 light per shelf. My seedlings LUV LUV them. U might take a look. I use those same shelving unit from home depot

How many succesions of snap dragons do you plant? Do you get flowers all season😊
When you pot things up what do you use for soil? Do you buy it or mix your own?
How long does it take you to water all those seedlings? How often do you water? So good!
Thanks for the tour! My snaps germinated but literally have stopped growing 😞
Empty soil blocks...sounds like me! 💜
Will you be doing gladiolus this year or have you given up the struggle?? Also, my feverfew won't start, yours looks great!!
Would you be willing to share your week by week planting schedule. I am in the same zone as you and it would be really fun to see if we are on the same schedule. Thanks😊
Last year, you found a purple amaranth in your sunflower patch, and said you're saving that seed.... Any update? 🤠
Can you link the lights you use?! Your seedlings look nice and I’m tired of researching grow lights 😅
What lightbulbs are you using? Thank you.
When I start my seeds they do not get this big, even with lights... Do you use liquid fertilizer in them? I have to pot them in bigger sizes quite quickly. ..
