On this week’s Good to Grow, hosts Denise, John, and Jan will talk about summer vegetables, with time, preparation, and ready with propagation tips! There is a tremendous amount of satisfaction in starting your seeds. The tomato is the perfect veggie to start the summer season. There are some things you will need to consider, such as the kind of soil you will use to help the seeds germinate, the size of your pot, the consistency of the soil, and how deep you should plant your seeds. Pro-Tip: Plant the seed at a quarter of an inch (the length of the end of a No. 2 pencil eraser) in damp soil. Don’t miss this edition of Good to Grow and stay tuned for the next episode!
The El Paso County Master Gardeners started in 1981 and has been growing with many volunteers and Master Gardeners ever since. The love of gardening and search for knowledge are primary reasons people join the program to become trained and certified Master Gardeners. Texas Master Gardeners are united in name, but the program’s strength lies in its ability to meet the diverse needs of the communities it serves.
