❤ another great information video. Thank you!!! I can’t wait to try your method of growing Lisianthus. I grew mine (first time ever growing Lisianthus from seed) in soil blocks this past year and although I had fantastic results…the soil blocks were yucky from algae by the time they were ready to pot up. I didn’t want to touch them & I’m a gardener who loves having their hands in dirt. lol

@shesamadgardener Ай бұрын

Wonderful! I used to do soil blocks as well but it hurts my hands to use it!

Thank you, I was thinking I could plant in late summer then overwinter, I’m in a hot climate as you are. I have the winter seeding on heat mats going on at the moment, here in Australia, but next year I’ll try your plan.

Hi Amanda, I found some 6 pks of Lisianthus this spring and planted them right away. It's been 5 wks in the ground but they really haven't grown much at all. I had heard they were slow to germinate but didn't realize the entire growing process was so slow, Thanks for this informative video, you are a good teacher.

@shesamadgardener Ай бұрын

They are slow growing as well as slow germination!

Good morning. I have seen garden answer use these types of starters multiple times. She seems to be able to up seed her plants and then reuse the starters again. So I think you will be able to use it lots of times. If I had the space I would do the lisianthus for growing. Enjoy your time in Alaska.

First I have to say I love your shirt!! I am so happy for this video. Great details in your instructions. I have my seeds but don’t think they are pelleted so I’m hoping there isn’t a special way they need to touch the soil. I will be starting mine this weekend waiting for a plant stand to arrive that I ordered just for them. 👏👏I’m so excited to be growing with you. ❤

@shesamadgardener Ай бұрын

No special way if they aren’t pelleted … they will just be super tiny and look like specs of dirt!

Thanks for this very informative video 👍this is my first year at seed sowing and like you I just love to arrange the flowers and give to friends and family. You have given me the confidence to give these difficult seeds a try. Just ordered the pellets on line. Not sure how your method will work in N W England but I’m going to give it a try. Looking forward to your update videos 😍. As this has been my first year at seed sowing I must agree that some of the seed sowing sets are very flimsy and split apart when you come to get the seedlings out🙁 I will make sure that my future purchases are more robust 🌺🌸

Bootstrap farmer trays will last forever. Very strong. I use generic 6 or 4 pack cells, off Amazon, quite cheap but last 4 or 5 seasons. It's the 10/20 flat that needs to be the best quality. No problem carrying them around one handed. Hex trays IMHO are trash.

@shesamadgardener Ай бұрын

Yes they contacted me about showing their product. I don’t do sponsorships like that, but I wouldn’t mind buying some myself to try if you think it’s worth it!

I found this video to be very informative and helpful! Thank you! I have tried growing lisianthus from seed for the past two years now. The first year was a bust, the second year much better but I still have lots to learn. Question: I've heard that in the seedling stage, lisianthus can't handle temps above 80° F or they will start to rosette. At what point are they able to handle heat 80 or above? I start the seed in my house under grow lights, but after they are up and growing I would love to move them to my small backyard greenhouse. Will they get too warm in there??

@shesamadgardener Ай бұрын

I don’t stress about the rosette because I am not looking for bloom right away and instead will have blooms in a year. However, I don’t typically plant mine out until the end of September and while the temps will still be high, they will cool off each evening.

Hi Amanda! Thanks for a fabulous video. I am also in Texas, but in Houston Zone 9b. I keep my house at 74F during the day and 72F overnight. Currently trying to identify the coolest area of my home to germinate my lisianthus in. Do you think that will work to germinate and then subsequently grow them indoors for ~12 weeks? If not, I can drop my AC further but these hot summers are a huge energy bill suck! Thank you for your thoughts.

@shesamadgardener 3 күн бұрын

How about starting a few of your seeds to see if they will germinate under those conditions? And if they do, then you can start the rest. If they don’t, then you can drop your AC for the rest of them.

@drhappyplants Ай бұрын

Hi Amanda, I noticed last year you started your lizzie's in August - or at least that was the date of the video. i'm curious, why'd you start earlier? i'm zone 9 a; reached out to John's Plant Adventures in phoenix; and he stafts early August; wondering the best time for my environment West TX! Thanks 😊

@shesamadgardener Ай бұрын

I want them to be larger before planting them out … last year I lost about 30% when I moved them outside, so I’m hoping for bigger more robust root systems by starting earlier.

@BeckyF8800 Ай бұрын

Thanks for sharing this. I tried this year to grow some and failed. I knew they were tricky so I'm gonna try again. I did buy some black and orange pansie for fall and need to start those'd next week. Have you started those before and a good trick?

I have started them and will be starting again next week. Here’s my video from last year kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qKmqqqmnyL69gKs.htmlsi=6R1D1aPCjcXH4ev9

@glamrhinestones9283 Ай бұрын

Great video. I attempted one tray; it was too hot, and none germinated. I am in the Phoenix area, and this gives me hope. I followed your directions and was able to get about 90% germination. Now I want more. Do you look for any other signs other than a 3-4 month period to transplant them? Do you think they will survive if I plant them in December (plugs I have already ordered)? I was having difficulty figuring out which group to order, but it sounds that they will grow regardless of the group in the hot climate.

@shesamadgardener 27 күн бұрын

If you aren’t getting to crazy low temps, they should be fine to transplant in December … just be sure to cover them if it gets below freezing!

@dougieduck95 18 күн бұрын

I’m growing in the UK and manage to get germination but they grow so slow. They were sown 6 months ago and still too small to plant out. Are they suitable for overwintering in a heated greenhouse ? Great video

@shesamadgardener 17 күн бұрын

Hi there! Are you fertilizing them? Do they get at least 14 hours under grow lights each day? Mine overwinter outside in freezing temps, but I do cover them when it gets anywhere close to 25 degrees. I would think a greenhouse would be fine unless your temps get super cold.

Lights. Do you go full brightness from seed till they go outside? My grow light can change its brightness and I’m not sure how bright it should be.

Mine don’t have setting but I would go full on.

@fishcats1 Ай бұрын

Hmm. I know I’m weird but we keep the air conditioning set on 77. And I usually start seeds in my house. So do you think they won’t come up because it’s too warm?

@shesamadgardener Ай бұрын

It most probably will work but might take longer for yours to germinate.
