#26 – Hardening Off Seedlings

by | Mar 2, 2023

What is hardening off, and why is it so important? Are there alternatives to the traditional “in and out” method or any situations when hardening off is not necessary? Today, Lisa and Layne discuss how to harden off your seedlings to help them transition from their indoor growing environment to outdoor life. They cover why proper hardening off is critical for the health and well-being of your seedlings, different methods to accomplish it, possible exceptions, and how long it typically takes for seedlings to acclimate to the outdoors. Listen to the podcast and learn how to properly harden off your growing seedlings!

The video version of Lisa and Layne’s conversation will be posted to The Gardener’s Workshop’s YouTube channel, where all “Seed Talk” episodes are organized into a playlist. In addition, auto-generated transcripts are available for viewing on YouTube.
