Are you starting your seedlings soon? Read this FIRST

It's almost September and the gardening bug is in the air. I think most of us are in the gardening mood after such a long hot summer. I'm sure we all have our own ways to prepare for the season but it's probably very similar: getting new soil or finally taking out that compost, buying seeds of a few new varieties of edibles to try, cleaning out the pots and probably starting seeds, among others. Starting seeds is my most exciting and my most feared activity. It's can be tricky and this is where most us fail at one point or another, and this is what prevents some new gardeners from exploring gardening more. But with good planning it can be a success. To learn more about this green business check out my updated post about starting seeds:

1st day of the new season and a youtube channel


It's the season again. I always get excited about it. I am starting a bit early this year as the weather has started to cool. I didn't plant any cover crops as I had planned so my garden beds were there all summer bare under the harsh sun. The soil obviously dried out and before I can plant I need to prepare it. Since I receive a lot of emails from people asking me how I garden and how can they I decided to create a youtube channel to show what I do and how I do it. I hope you enjoy it.
