Starting Your Garden from Seed

Rocky Mountain Gardening Elective

Few things excite a gardener more than growing from seed--especially exotics and heirlooms--and the financial benefits of growing your own plants. Learn simple seed botany and the process of best practices for successful seed germination, successful transplanting, and seed collection and storage. Understand some of the reasons seeds and seedlings fail. This class demystifies the seed-starting process primarily focused to the novice gardener, but it is a good refresher for more advanced gardeners.
