nicklesndimes Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 kinda want to try growing some of these this year, but they seem kinda novelty me(not sure if they're really that huge, or just a gimmick..). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do some research on those. I get sunflowers like crazy that grow wild and get huge (taller than me). They seem to grow a bit out of control.l and spread all over the place. Maybe different type though. I do love some sunflower seeds though. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Man Banned Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 They're big enough and tall enough. Sunflowers are cool to grow. I have to be careful of the type I grow because bears do eat them, especially black oil sunflowers. Those giants are probably nice but if you take that on be prepared for some snapped stalks and having squirrels bite the tops off. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUGR Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Just planted a new habanero. Got a Birds Eye/Thai chili that popped up from a seed of a dropped chili in the spot I had that plant last year. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Man Banned Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Snow showers last night but I just got the cold tolerant stuff down- Chinese chives, Swiss chard, Pak Choi. Indoors started cabbage, Greek Pepperoncini, Red Hot Cherry peppers, and some magic beans. The rest can wait a few days, plus I have to pick up some more seeds elsewhere. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMdoubleXL Posted March 29 Author Share Posted March 29 My lil sansevieria are throwing new plants besides a few common outdoor container plants I’m gonna try these out for my patio Unless I get inundated with spotted lantern flies. and I’m just gonna dump a whole lot in the soil from last year and see what happens. Not gonna sow them inside. I’m a lazy gardener. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schnitzel Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 my only plants thsat are solely mine are cactuses that I buy when they are on special and look pretty bedraggled. Last year somebody told me that if you submerge the pot until the bubbles stop every 6 weeks they'll grow nicely in summer. it seems to be true - look at the white spines to the yellow ones. that's all the new growth from last 6 months compared with previous couple years below. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ko SprueOne Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 This sage is approximately 4 years old and still blooming. Pictures from this morning after pulling out other seedlings from other flowers and grass from under and around it. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Man Banned Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Today is National Gardening Day, so plant some seeds. Weather here is crazy, are we about to skip Spring? Still, got more cold tolerant stuff down like spinach and peas. Ended up doing some sunflowers for the hell of it. If I get anything it will grow up and block the view from the nosey. Have perennial wildflower seeds on the way to help convert an area where shrubbery is losing out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
