yeah, this was a combo of High Mowing Seeds, a new place called Seedsnsuch, and amazon.

I wish i could just go with burpees or park seeds or one of the standard places

Yeah, I'm really hoping it takes well. It should, as it apparently likes shitty, sandy soil. We tried white dutch clover a few years ago, but that didn't work well. This stuff is supposed to be MUCH better.

thats a good call. Nitrogen fixing, low growing.

Fuck Grass.


Grass is the dumbest shit.

what did you go for for heat mats. I never get satisfactory result doing seedlings with lights, so im gonna germinate inside, then bring em outside during the day to grow. Its too chilly outside still though, so ill need heat mats.

Two of these:
Amazon product ASIN B000E3DDP2
And two of these:
Amazon product ASIN B000NZZG3S
And then tall domed lids with vents for the trays so the plants can stay in them longer without hitting the top.

that one has a buncha complaints that its weak and will only raise the soil temp like 10 degrees max. The other one looks good

 

[Domon]

whyd you split it among 2? different seeds need different temps?

Bought the first when we were in our old condo with just a few raised beds.

Obviously needed more firepower when we built the farm

I have a dozen tomatoes already in my wild tomato garden and the second garden that popped up where the chickens used to be a growing crazy fast.

Our microclover seems to be coming in well!

I gotta go pick up the spring weed and feed shit for the spreader, and get some grass seed with microclover in it.

ask what the combination of 'weed and feed' and 'grass seed' will accomplish.

I thought that the 'weed preventer' also prevented all seeds from germinating.
