If you are interested in windowsill herbs, dining table arugula and potted
spinach, you can start your seeds anytime as long as you're growing
indoors. I've successfully grown indoor-only tomatoes at oddball times of
the year with a south-facing window and a soil mixture of worm poop and
coconut coir.
.
If we're talking about transplants and sowing seeds for an outdoor garden,
you can definitely start too early and risk stunted and sometimes buggy
seedlings just itching to get outdoors. In addition, transplanting can be
downright traumatic for plants, especially root vegetables. Not only do we
disturb delicate root systems, we often shock the plant with our High
Country extremes between indoor and outdoor.
.
Even though we have a short growing season, you may be surprised to hear
transplanting isn't necessary and may be a waste of time, energy and
plants. With such strong winds, sun and cold nights, our poor babies have
a hard time adapting from the protection of our heated homes to the harsh
mountain climate. Many Summit gardeners have found seeds started outside
in May and June adapt to our gnarly elements from day one and grow up
healthier and stronger (and even faster) than those started indoors in
March.
