I then had two of the cold frames shown in the video. It&#8217;s just a wooden frame with Enviromesh draped over to stop mainly birch seeds from entering but allowing water to pass through. You will also see the various mostly recycled sow pots that I use, including milk cartons on their side with holes punched in the bottom for drainage (stapled at the ends). I sow up to 10 different species in each milk carton tray, not sowing plants from the same family close to each other in case the seed wanders! Hope this helps :)<br \/>16th February: Updated with a midwinter picture of the cold frame at the bottom.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 790px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-17847-1\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"http:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Stratifying-cold-frame.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Stratifying-cold-frame.mp4\">http:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Stratifying-cold-frame.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"769\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/P2020273-769x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/P2020273-769x1024.jpg 769w, https:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/P2020273-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/P2020273-768x1022.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/P2020273-640x852.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/P2020273.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 769px) 100vw, 769px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was asked how I stratify so many different varieties of seed every year, still around 200-300, although until recently it was over 400.
