Fall Seeds

While fall seeds are typically planted in the fall, some species can be planted in the spring as well.

However, it’s important to check the specific requirements of each seed type before planting to ensure the best results.

Fall seeds and winter seeds can be similar, but they may have different planting times and requirements.

Fall seeds are usually planted in late summer to early fall and can withstand the cooler temperatures of fall, while winter seeds are planted in late fall and can withstand the harsher winter conditions.

Some fall seeds may require special preparation before planting, such as stratification (a process of simulating winter conditions) or scarification (a process of breaking seed coat dormancy).

It’s important to check the specific requirements of each seed type before planting to ensure optimal germination and growth.

Yes, fall seeds can be stored for later planting as long as they are kept in a cool, dry place with good air circulation. It’s important to label and date the seed packets for easy identification later on.

Before purchasing fall seeds, it’s important to check the hardiness zone map for your area and select seeds that are recommended for your climate.
