Thanks !❤ I make a strip of paper towel and seeds ! I make them up in December ! I make a paste of 1 tsp flour and 1 tsp water and mix it up to make like a paste like glue ! Add a drop of glue, spaced 2 “ apart and drop a seed on it and when I am ready to plant I just use the strips and lay them in the dirt and cover lightly with soil ! Done !

Also love the back stories that you share. So much more enriching videos! I love knowing the 'why' for most things 😊

Thank you for this video. Next time you are a Home Depot or Lowe’s, grab few of the long paint sticks, they already have the measurements on it. Then drill holes on every inch.😀
I will be attempting to do a raised garden for the first time. Thank you again for your videos.

You have a great idea here. I'm inspired to drill holes in a ruler now.

Thanks a lot for this tutorial. I just discovered your channel and quickly subscribed. It is early June. As I was going through your videos to find one on salads to grow in the summer, I could not resist watchng this one immediatly as I plan to sow spinach in the automn.
One question: how much water for those seeds ? every day for a couple of minutes for the first 2 weeks?

What kinds of pins to pin the netting in place?

Nice video! Where do you get those wire hoops?

My poor seeds to be stunted or missing something. I am seeing some true leaves, but they seem to be really small. Maybe I am doing something wrong or maybe it just needs some more time. Any advice? Thanks

I have to say it's pretty easy to believe you were a cheerleader and no so long ago either.

Really wish these videos would be edited to remove some of the random off topic things...like get to the point or add time points so we can just skip to the condensed version.
