EASIEST Vegetables to Start From Seed (Clear Signals)

Описание: Seed starting doesn’t fail because of timing, lights, or equipment.

Most beginners struggle because they start with the wrong vegetables first.

Some plants give clear feedback right away. Others stay quiet for weeks, leaving you guessing whether anything is working. When you begin with “quiet” plants, seed starting feels confusing — even when nothing is actually wrong.

In this video, I break down the easiest vegetables to start from seed — not because they’re indestructible, but because they give feedback. These plants show clear signals, short feedback loops, and steady progress, making them ideal for beginners and early-season planning.

When should you start seeds?
Seed starting dates depend entirely on your location.

GardenGuide shows you when to start seeds and when to transplant, based on where you live — without memorizing charts or doing frost-date math.
