Seeding Techniques and Garden Care

There are so many ways to grow plants, and in this workshop, we’ll learn about the most common seeding techniques, and then get into garden care during the different seasons of the year. We’ll cover:

• Seeding long season crops indoors, soils to use, what your seedlings will need & how to care for your babies

• Seed germination testing

• Direct seeding

• Transplanting seedlings

• Thinning, weeding, watering, fertilizing, mulching, companion planting, basics of pests and disease management, other common seasonal garden care practices

• We’ll take a tour of the CEC’s greenhouse to see seedling growing in process, and then seed some trays together

Come away from this talk with the core principles of seeding techniques and a whole lot of insight into garden care throughout the seasons.
