With the growing season fast approaching, here’s some tips to help get you going! Pumpkins start to germinate at soil temperatures between 65° and 70°F. Get a head start by sowing some of your pumpkin seeds a few days before your last expected frost date. Ten days later, when sprouts begin to appear, sow a second row about 6 inches from the first. If a late killing frost arrives, you can depend on the second crop. If a killing frost does not occur, pull out the second planting. image
Huge shoutout to one of our regulars in Florida! All these seeds are heading to warmer weather! image
With the growing season fast approaching, here’s some tips to help get you going. For Peas, it’s best to prepare pea planting beds in the fall for a head start. Turn over the soil, add aged manure, and mulch well. In the early spring, when soil temps are at least 40°F, pull back the mulch and make holes with a dibble, if necessary, to get your seeds into the ground. A blanket of snow won’t hurt emerging pea plants, but several days of freezing temperatures could; cover , if necessary. Add more seeds later if you discover spaces where some seeds did not germinate. image
