Pre-Seed Vegetable Seeds

To seed in advance for fall, winter, and spring.

Advancing seeds for fall, winter, and spring gardens means starting or preparing seeds early—either by sowing, pre-seeding, or transplanting—so that you maximize your growing time, especially in climates with short seasons like much of Canada.

Here’s a breakdown of which seeds you can advance (start early or pre-seed) for Fall, Winter, and Spring harvests and how to do it:

Fall Garden (Plant in Summer for Fall Harvest)

Start seeds in July–August, either directly in the garden or indoors for transplanting.

✅ Great seeds to advance:

  • Leafy Greens: Kale, spinach, Swiss chard, mustard greens, arugula
  • Root Vegetables: Carrots, beets, radishes, turnips
  • Brassicas: Broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts

🧑‍🌾 Tips:

  • Pre-seed indoors or under shade during hot summer.
  • Harden off seedlings before transplanting in cooler fall soil.
  • Use row covers or cold frames to extend the season into late fall.

Creating a Winter Garden from seed involves selecting hardy, cold-tolerant crops that can either be sown in late summer/early fall for winter harvest or overwintered for early spring harvest. Here's a list of seed varieties ideal for a winter garden, especially in Canadian and northern U.S. zones:

🌱 Winter Garden Seed Varieties

🥬 Leafy Greens

  • Kale (‘Winterbor’, ‘Red Russian’) – Extremely cold-hardy.
  • Spinach (‘Bloomsdale Long Standing’, ‘Giant Winter’) – Sweetens with frost.
  • Swiss Chard – Survives mild winters with mulch.
  • Mâche (Corn Salad) – Very cold-tolerant; perfect for salad greens.
  • Claytonia (Miner’s Lettuce) – Thrives in cool, damp conditions.

🥕 Root Vegetables

  • Carrots (‘Napoli’, ‘Merida’) – Can be overwintered in the ground with mulch.
  • Beets – Early fall sowing gives sweet winter roots.
  • Turnips – Fast-growing and frost-tolerant.
  • Parsnips – Require frost to develop flavor; sow midsummer.
  • Rutabaga – Cold-hardy and stores well.

🥦 Brassicas

  • Cabbage (‘January King’, ‘Wintergreen’) – Overwinters with protection.
  • Broccoli (‘Purple Sprouting’, ‘Calabrese’) – Best for overwintering in mild climates.
  • Brussels Sprouts – Improves with frost.

🌿 Herbs

  • Parsley – Cold-hardy biennial.
  • Chives – Hardy perennial, regrows early in spring.
  • Thyme, Oregano, and Sage – Hardy perennials in many zones.

🧤 Tips for Winter Gardening Success

  • Use Cold Frames or Row Covers to extend harvest and protect seedlings.
  • Mulch heavily to insulate soil and root crops.
  • Choose short-day or overwintering varieties specifically labeled for cold climates.
  • Succession plant in late summer (August–September) for a steady supply through winter.

🌱 Spring Garden (Start in Late Winter or Very Early Spring)

Advance seeds indoors in February–March to transplant after the last frost.

✅ Ideal for seed advancement:

  • Tomatoes, peppers, eggplant (start 6–8 weeks before last frost)
  • Brassicas (broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower)
  • Herbs: Parsley, dill, thyme
  • Lettuce, onions, leeks (early starters)
  • Peas: Soak and pre-sprout for fast germination

💡 Tips:

  • Use grow lights or sunny windowsills.
  • Harden off plants before transplanting outdoors.
  • Use cold frames to get an early start in the ground.

Habanero 'Orange' Pepper, Hot Pepper, Pepper Seeds

Habanero Orange

Orange Habanero is an aromatic chile pepper with a subtle apricot aroma and offers an intense and pungent heat.

Ripens from green to bright orange color with thin skin and waxy exterior. The pods have a distinctive lantern-like shape and are small at 2” long and 1“-2” wide. Capsicum chinense (90 days) Heirloom - Open-pollinated

The habanero chili is one hot pepper! Unripe habaneros are green, and they color as they mature. Common colors are orange and red, but white, brown, and pink are also seen. The Scotch bonnet is often compared to the habanero, since they are two varieties of the same species, but have different pod types.

Both the Scotch bonnet and the habanero have thin, waxy flesh. They have a similar heat level and flavor. Although both varieties average around the same level of “heat”, the actual degree of piquancy varies greatly from one fruit to another with genetics, growing methods, climate, and plant stress.

The name means “someone or something from La Habana”, or as it is known in English, Havana (“b” and “v” being interchangeable phonetically in Spanish).

The habanero chili comes from the Amazonas region, and from there it was spread through Mexico. One domesticated habanero, which was dated at 8,500 years old, was found at an archaeological dig in Peru. The Yucatán Peninsula is the biggest producer of habaneros these days, but it’s grown in many South American and Central American countries.
