It's Gary season baby!

Why cant I just put seeds in a large pot to avoid transplanting
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
So, do you have to have grow lights for this to work?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
mine dies with in 4days of germinating

Hey Gary… When starting tomato seed indoors do you soak them an what's your take on the seed that sinks and float for better results
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
thank you, subscribed
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Gary,
Is there any reason one can't
A. Start with styrofoam cups (which I used with my on-line bought seedlings) and save the step?
B. Plant one seed in each cup and just make more?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
What is the earliest I can transplant them into the transplant cups? It has been about 1 and a half weeks since germination- almost 3 weeks since sowing in my seed hexes.
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Good video.
What about depth? How deep a seed should be in tray for better germination?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Gary– I have a question– Been starting seeds indoors for a few years now but this year I took the hint of getting the seedlings outside early to get used to the sun, during this process I notice my seedlings growing much slower than other year. Would this hardening off process in the early stages actually slow their growth?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
After transplant place under grow lights or let them rest a bit ?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Love your videos! Only ones I can really follow.
Hopefully my tomatoes thank me!
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Why not just start them in the styro cups?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
I've never grown tomatoes this sounds harder than I thought
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
When I transplant from the seed trays I use 9oz cups so I can place the seedlings all the way up to the leaves and will leave more room for rooting all along the stem.
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
I got tomatoes seed from dollar tree and now they are all leggy. Does that mean they won’t grow leaves? It’s been over 2 months since I planted
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Hi Gary, Just wondering why you don't put the seeds directly into the styro cups? Other people do that too but I don't know why. Thanks.
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
why do you make two transplants? why dont you germinate them in the big cup?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
'you did not mention how much water to give to planted seeds and sprouted ones's!
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Which month to start? I live in cold rainy BC
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Are those black containers reusable? Tnx
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Hi Gary.
I'm about to transplant my tomatoes that are on their 3rd to 4th set of leaves. Do I continue to use my grow light so close or do I raise it up? I'm running out of space to put them under my light with the bigger cups. I'm limited on room. Thanks!! I've learned alot from your videos!
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
When watering your seedlings do you use fertilizer or plant food? If so what strength? Full or half?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
My seedlings never grow that big in 4-5 weeks. I plant them in coco coir; could that be one of the reasons? Compared to that they grow much better in soil. What should I do?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Do you use heat mats at all for growing?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
For how much time these are to be kept indoors ? Do they need some warmth inside ?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Good by indai kerala
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Do your tomato seedlings come out funny shaped?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
can you start seedlings in 2" rock wool cubs
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Gary I went to your blog and tried to purchase the 8 tomato setup your blog presented. Could not make it work but I scrolled down to the Brandywine 4 type colors and tried again to add the 8 part Nada So I went back down to the Brendywines and purchased another set. I Like the BW's because the root system is strong enough to graft a different taste Tomato like Golden's cherry or another. My GF likes to munch while we garden together. No Problems here Gary. Maybe next-time I'll get the Big Bunch you got 😉 Have a Great Day.

Am interest to make pepper and tomatoes farm who can guard me to achieve my dream
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Quick and informative thank you!
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
what about worms and parsitet in the soil
boiling the water before dosent help
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Helpful info. I started some peppers and tomatoes in the wrong kind of soil. I used garden soil mixed with seed starter, they grew but stopped at around 2" high and seem to have stopped growing. I made a video showing same seeds with different soil, makes a big difference. Thanks again for the video and info.
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
have you ever grow seedlings in a windowsill without an electric light?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
oh i hav started tomato plants from seed this year for the first time n was wondering when n how to get them into my garden…thanx for your video…i learnt a lot from it.
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
ok what about watering? Do you mist with a spray bottle? How much water do you give? How often
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Durning germination process… do you need light? (Not direct sunlight) also do we already start to fertilize or wait untill they are truleaves transplant
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
My seedlings have sprouted but most have become leggy. Ive misted them and put them more under the direct heatlamp in my greehouse that I have. Will that help them?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
i have qustion if the tomato plant become 8 days old so what cente miter pot
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Is there a reason you don't use styrofoam cups right away and avoid transplanting?
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
hey Gary I use the same container s for my seeds . lol
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Hello dear Mr.
In this case of transplanting seedlings, are you using the same mix of soil or you added fertilizer to the mix? thanks.
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Why start plants in cells and not directly into the cups? P.S. I'll bet you're a wonder at changing a baby's diapers by the way you handle your plants! Haha
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Just a tip – I've found that if transplant shock does occur, add just a touch of sugar to the water, and keeping it out of direct sunlight works almost every time.
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
Gary excellent video, in all these years of watching videos on the tube your chanel is my first subscription, thanks for the video. Im on day four in my hoop house design and build. I hope to start my own chanel soon
April 6, 2020 @ 6:12 pm
