Our latest YouTube tutorial comes in answer to a request for a video about seed-starting. In this video we share two different methods for starting seeds for your fall (or spring) garden. We explore the traditional seed-starting method, as well as the Grow BioIntensive method for germinating a lot of seeds in one small seed flat.

Seed-starting allows you to grow plants that aren’t available at the nursery. The world is your oyster when you grow from seed. It’s also much less expensive (a packet of seeds costs less than 1 four-inch seedling and those seeds will last for years). Check out our tips for seed-starting success:
