Episode Details

Your first sale is a rush—then the real questions begin. In this episode, we step into the greenhouse to talk through what “next” actually looks like on a working flower farm, from seed starting and temperature control to season extension and crop timing. We also get honest about reinvesting early profits and why scaling too fast—without the right infrastructure—can quietly stall your growth.

From hoop houses and irrigation to hard lessons in crop timing, we share what expansion really costs and how flexibility protects your bottom line. We then zoom out to bigger strategy—annuals vs. perennials, choosing sales channels, and balancing high-value crops without putting everything at risk. If you’re navigating that early momentum, this episode gives you a clearer, more grounded path forward.
