About this episode
Winter sowing is a seed-starting method that sounds a little bit wild the first time you hear it but makes sense if you think about it from a horticultural standpoint.

If you’ve ever: • Run out of space under grow lights • Been frustrated by leggy indoor seedlings • Or just felt like you don’t have the time or money or inclination for a full seed-starting setup …winter sowing might be your new favorite technique.
