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.
  • ThymeOregano, 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.

Martinez Red Chimayo Mexican Pepper, Pueblo Indians, Spice & Sweet

Chimayo

Heat Level: Medium  Scoville 4,000 - 5,000

Chimayo-(Capsicum annuum)-Chimayo chiles are a chile that is deeply rooted in Native American and New Mexico Historical culture. Named after the small town just 28 miles north of Santa Fe, New Mexico. The name Chimayo comes from the Tewa Indian word which means flaking red stone. The town of Chimayo is home to the El Sanctuario de Chimayo. A place of worship built in 1816 and one of the most visited Religious landmarks in America. People make pilgrimages there every year from around the world. It is rumored that this chile was brought to this valley in 1598 by Don Juan de Onate when he settled the area on behalf of Spain. The Chimayo chile is grown in the surrounding valley and is harvested when red. It is not produced on a large scale so the powder still gets a good price. The flavor is very complex and you can make sauces with just the powder and salt and nothing else! So just imagine how much you can do with it in the kitchen with other ingredients! The Chimayo chiles are over 1 inch wide and 3 to 6 inches long. They can be eaten freshly roasted but are more suited for making seasoning powders after drying. The Chimayo chile plants are very productive and grow to almost 2 feet tall.

Portuguese Cascadura Ancho Poblano, Grilling Zero-Heat Sweet Pepper, Brazilian Pepper Varient

The Cascadura Poblano Sweet Pepper is a unique, mild variety combining the deeply lobed, pumpkin-like shape of Cascadura types with the broader, slightly elongated form of a poblano. Fruits are thick-walled, glossy, and ripen from green to rich red. The texture is firm and juicy, making it excellent for stuffing, roasting, grilling, or fresh slicing.

Flavor is rich and slightly earthy like a poblano, balanced with a gentle sweetness and no bitterness. It holds up well to cooking and develops a deeper, almost smoky sweetness when roasted.

Scoville Heat Units (SHU): 0 – 500 SHU (very mild to no heat)

This makes it ideal for those who enjoy poblano-style flavor without the spice.

Yes, the Cascadura pepper is a type of Poblano/Ancho pepper, often described as a high-quality, Brazilian variant of the classic Mexican pepper. It is specialized for its sweet flavor, thick walls, and high productivity. 

Type: Capsicum annuum (Ancho/Poblano type).

Origin: Brazil.

Flavor/Heat: Mild to no heat (0 Scoville Heat Units), with a sweet, robust flavor.

Appearance: 3–5 inch, plump, and deeply lobed, heart-shaped fruit (resembling a pepper-like pumpkin).

Usage: They are often used green for roasting, stuffing, and grilling, but they turn a rich, glossy red when mature. 

While standard Poblano peppers can sometimes have a mild-to-moderate heat, the Cascadura is specifically noted for having almost zero heat while retaining the traditional "Ancho" flavor profile.
