direct seeding

delltraveller · May 27, 2011

For anyone who has been hit by one of the frosts, hail storms, high winds, or just got behind in your plans, you might try direct seeding. My grandmother would buy a couple plants and then also direct seed. She lived in Keokuk County, Iowa, and this was successful for her. She did it every year. It's certainly worth a try. I'm guessing her location would have been zone 3b-4 ish.

I'm posting a little bit about my grandmother in the 2cents category. She died about four hours ago, at age 93.
