I live in Ohio and we think we planted the seeds in our garden too deep. Will things still come up?
Written by admin on May 24, 2009 – 3:51 am -We planted the cereal, watermelon, peas, peppers, carrots… This is our first garden and have planted all deep about 6 or 7 inches. It was planted for about 3-4 weeks and only some small sprouts.

No - as a rule of thumb, you plant seeds only 2-3 times their size in terms of depth - very few vegetables get planted deeper than 1/2″. Whatever has come up has worked its little buns off, so you will see a few of those but everything else is just rotting down there, you should just get more seeds and overplant the area.

You will be fine.The soil has to warm up for the seeds to germinate.The corn will be OK,the peppers should be.Peas are a little deep,just keep the soil moist and give the plants some time.
