  1. It’s been really funny to me that people put stuff out so early it’s like they forget about the nighttime lows or something. But I’ve kind of learned most of my growing knowledge from indoors and temperature is a big deal for optimal plant growth and so it just makes sense to me to wait till the night time lows are at a decent temperature.

  2. Thank you so much for sharing what you do and how you do it to save others (possibly) the growing pains (no pun intended lol) of getting started and of starting up. I am an aquaponics enthusiast but I really enjoy your videos and appreciate your dedication to your craft and business and hope to do what you are doing someday 😀

  3. Same as you, I tried growing tomatoes early last year, but a bit later (feb indoors). I maybe got tomatoes a week ahead of usual, not really worth the trouble of putting them out early. This year I am growing wala wala onions from seed so starting those now indoors since they can handle the cold just fine in march.

  4. Hey Curtis I have this plot that's a bit steep but it's a wide space, my question is if you have come across plots like this how would you go about it. I own the land, it's really close to the city, and has a nice building at the top of it that I could make into a microgreens/prepping and packing warehouse. The steepness of the land really makes me wonder how to go about it and the challenges it could bring in.

  5. Don’t know if you mentioned it Curtis, what month did your tomatoes ripen? I started a whole bunch inside last year and still didn’t really get a good crop till about the middle of July.

  6. My husband and I will be at the GrowRiverside conference and our son will be attending your 2 day workshop here during that time (if money allows I’ll attend as well!) My question is; in terms of level of information and hands on experience, would it be better to try to attend the AZ workshop instead? We live here in Riverside and thank you so much for booking here!

  7. Hey Curtis,

    Not sure if you have done in the past but would you be able to post a video about planting seasons.
    Eg: Type of plant, time of year, crop rotation timeframes & sequencing.

    This information should be aimed at rookies that are getting started. (Me)

    This also could be in your book that I’m waiting for also. Many thanks.

  8. Curtis I always wondered why you are not growing saffron. What do you think about ''Pur Safran'' in Quebec. They seem to be doing great.
