What I’m Planting in February (& Why) + Greenhouse Tips

Описание: Website: ModernPrimitiveLife.com
In this video I’m walking through what I’m sowing in February — but it’s more than just a seed list. I’m planting live and talking through the decisions behind it: greenhouse setup, supplemental lighting, temperature control, choosing the right varieties for your area, and a few lessons I’ve learned from past seasons.

February is one of the most important months for setting up the rest of the year. A lot of success in the garden doesn’t come from what you do in May — it starts now with planning, timing, and creating the right environment for strong seedlings.

This isn’t a strict tutorial or a checklist. It’s a real-time look at how I approach early seed starting, what I prioritize, and why. If you’re wondering what to start, how to avoid leggy seedlings, or how to make better variety choices based on your climate, this should give you a practical framework rather than just a list of crops.

Whether you’re using a greenhouse, grow lights, or just a sunny window, the goal is the same: strong starts, intentional planting, and building momentum before the season gets busy.
