Subject: High Altitude seed Germination
I have recently moved to 5000 ft elevation after being accustomed to
germinating seed at 1500 ft elevation. I have been having problems with
getting the seedlings large enough to survive a winter with the shorter
growing season and less sun (large trees on property). Does anyone have any
suggestions other than building a greenhouse. I have thousands of tiny
seedlings and we are expecting a killing freeze any day.
Thanks Lillian
