Winter Sowing
Anyone ever winter sown seeds- putting them in containers and setting them outside so they will over winter and then sprout when it warms up. Suppose to harden them off? I'm considering trying it though I better get on it- may have to do it next year IDK it could be too late? Any advice or information would be appreciated.

Look into the flower pot heaters, and Crisco candles. I kept my grow room(located in my un insulated garage) 77 yesterday when our power was out for 6 hours without a problem. I have used the candle, in a 115 oz can, for 2 days total with very little crisco burnt out. I am going to build 2-3 more to help heat my greenhouse in March. Pretty good savings when you consider I can heat the grow room for a week for just over $10.kayjay wrote:I'll be trying this. Our electric bills have been outrageous, and I'm loathe to start seeds under indoor lights. I might shell out for one small setup to do peppers and tomatoes, but it would be nice if the tomatoes were successful outside.
