VIDEO: My Propagation Setup for Annual Vegetables – Compost, Watering, Space etc


Signed copies of my book are now available: https://huwsnursery.shop/home/8-veg-in-one-bed.html
In this video, I walk you through my entire propagating setup for starting annual vegetable seed indoors. This helps give a head start to the season and reduces wasting space if germination from direct sowing is poor. Hopefully you will get some ideas to apply in your own situation and in the video I outline what I have in close proximity to the potting bench and why, watering and reducing the need to water, the storage of the seedlings, dealing with half-empty seed packets, how I sow a module tray and what is the missing piece from the whole setup.

  1. Stinging nettles are one of multiple mast cell stabilizing herbs that literally saved my life. I have an article on my blog sharing my mast cell stabilizers, including dock which is my primary medication now.

    Even EpiPens have natural alternatives (I have a video up discussing that topic).

    The Most High provides us freely with His medicine!

  2. I've been using Containerwise cell trays since the early 90s & have yet to break one – excellent products & a great replacement for the no longer available AP polystyrene cell trays.

  3. Huy, at around 3:25 with the rigid ContainerWays starter cells – isn't it difficult to get the seedlings out? With the cheap reused cells, I massage them gently whilst inverted to extract…

  4. Does he have any idea how good looking he is? I click on the video with pure intentions, and then I get distracted by his good looks and accent.

  5. Ah, yes, Dowding lured me in to this space in the first place 😀 British gentleman, trailblazer, knowledgeable, soft-spoken – what's not to love?
    His dismay at those sturdy planters being out of production gets me every time xD

  6. Hi Huw, have a question – does the compost not come out of the bottom when you move the modules around or water? The holes seem really large!

    Recently discovered your channel, thoroughly enjoying watching and learning!

  7. Hello everyone, do you know if the company of the sowing modules also ships to europe (italy)? Or do you know any other company that sells these items? Maybe on amazon?
