Hi all, I sowed my chamomile seeds a few weeks ago and thinned to about 4-5 plants per cell. I’m wondering if I should leave this many or further thin to only 2-3 plants per cell? How many do you all plant in a clump?
I have an about 12x3 foot strip of my best garden space that I am planning plant out with tomatoes all trellised on a Florida weave. I’m going to try to fit 9 plants in this strip. I know that night eight but I think it may still be doable. What are we thinking?
Can’t wait to move it outside and maybe get a fig by the fall👀 it’s been doing so well. I’m trying my best to let the soil dry out between waterings. I’ve been watering with diluted fertilizer with every watering. Also it’s under grow lights and has a fan on it.
I just took these and they were already just starting to push leaves out. I put some rooting hormone on them and stuck them in the prop box anyway. Do we think these will still strike?
Hi everyone I have a bit of a specific question and I’m looking for opinions.
I am moving out of my apartment on May 18th (38 days from tomorrow) and I want to plant my tomatoes out asap after arriving at my new home (after a brief hardening off period) . I’m starting seeds soon in my apartment so that I can transplant them out when I get to my new place. I’m starting about 25 plants in 6 cell trays. I will up pot them once into cups about half the size of a solo cup. Here’s my problem…
Being that I will have to travel with the plants I don’t want the plants to be too large for the journey. I want them to be around 10 inches tall. I have a strong grow light and fan and I’ve grown tomatoes many times. I’m trying to nail the timing so that the plants are big enough to transplant soon after arriving home but also not too big to be a pain to transport. I’m think around 10 inches is the sweet spot.
For a while now I’ve been trying to figure out the exact date that will be best for me to aim for and I’ve landed on April 10 for the sowing date. Now I’m second guessing myself and I’m concerned they may be too large by May 18th.
What do you all think. Should I push the date even more? When would you sow them? I added a picture of the size of plant I’m aiming for by the 18th of May.
It’s growing like a weed now and the tree it came from was only a few years old. I’m wondering how long I’ll have to wait to know if this is a male or female.
I’m just wondering if anyone has any idea how the inputs of compost effect the outcome. Are particular inputs more beneficial than others? My compost tends to be a lot of oak leaves, kitchen scraps, evergreen shrub trimmings, and all sorts of different yard waste. I’m just wondering if there are any studies on this that people know of? Is there a quantifiable difference in compost quality based on the inputs?
I saved seeds from this last year and want to see if anyone knows what the variety is
