Let me talk 'DIRT-y' to ya. Check out my secret soil formula for growing super healthy & delicious organic veggies, fruits and herbs
No doubt there are a million different choices you can make in selecting the right soil and amendments to grow your vegetables, fruits and herbs in. There are no right or wrong ways to do it. I do believe there are good, better and best ways and some not so best ways, but it is truly a personal choice.
My choices are based on TWO THINGS. High density of PHYTO (PLANT) NUTRIENTS in the final produce and freedom from toxic synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, ie ORGANIC whenever possible.
In this video, I show you which base potting soil mix I use and which amendments I add to that soil to boost and enhance its nutrition and increase the growth, size and taste of the plants.

Why Winter Sow?
~ Save a ton of money not having to buy expensive organic or heirloom seedlings at $4-$6 each!
~ No more grow lights hanging over your soil and seeds indoors all winter.
~ Big savings on electricity from leaving grow lights and heat lamps on 16 hours a day
~ Save space by not having your house taken over by seedlings for several months a year
~ Not having to 'harden' your seedlings (ie taking them indoors, outdoors, indoors, outdoors... for several weeks before leaving them outdoors for good.) This is a HUGE time saver!
~ They are actually stronger and healthier when the seeds germinate outdoors in the elements
~Save TIME not having to water your seedlings like you have to indoors. Mother Nature does your watering outdoors!
~ You KNOW the quality of your veggies will be perfect because YOU grew them (Quality Control)
~ It's super fun to go out in the snow and peek inside to see if they are growing yet
