From not knowing where to start to raising strong vegetable seedlings…
Not long ago – during the first coronavirus outbreak in March 2020 – I decided to try growing my own vegetable seedlings from seed.
Although I had started a seed or two in pots and cell trays here and there before, this time felt different. The world had shifted overnight, and the possibility of running out of food felt more real than ever.
With my wife three months pregnant, I wanted a backup plan. I wanted to grow food – faster and on a bigger scale than ever before…
Vegetable seed-starting seemed like the perfect solution.
If I could figure out how to raise my own plants from seed, I wouldn’t have to rely so much on whether stores stayed open or if garden centers had seedlings in stock.
I could take a seed, plant it even before the soil outside was warm enough, and – if I did things right – turn it into real food for my family!
It turned out better than I expected.
Luckily, the world didn’t end despite all the doom and gloom. Food was still available in the stores. But I stuck to my plan anyway. And it turned out better than I could have imagined…
Sure, I faced plenty of setbacks along the way. Many seedlings never made it to transplant size. But the ones that did – and there were plenty – thrived and delivered earlier and bigger harvests than I had ever seen before.
I’m not a professional gardener.
Everything I know came from trying, failing, and trying again…
