  • Jan 13 In the Garden: Start Your Own Seeds Like a Champ Starting your own seeds indoors has many benefits, the least of which is saving money! If you’ve had your eye on an unusual squash or carrot variety not available at your garden center, starting seeds opens the door to a whole new world of different transplants, some with improved germination rates and earlier harvests. Lisa Klein with UGA Extension Gwinnett walks you through the process and offers Q&A afterwards for more assistance. This program qualifies for master gardener continuing education credit.
