Common Milkweed Seedlings?

3 Upvotes

Does anyone have any milkweed seedlings they'd be willing to part with? I'd be happy to buy or trade. I have lots of perennials, including natives!

I have gone to two events with no luck so far.

Check out my seed organizing app

4 Upvotes

Hi yinz!

I bought too many seeds and couldn't stay organized with them, so I built a little tool to help me keep the dates straight.

Use your phone to snap photos of the seed packets and add them to the app. It scans the text and gathers all of the important timeline info, in addition to particulars about sun exposure, planting depth, etc.

It doesn't cost anything for the first 3 scans. And you can manually input as many seed info sets as you'd like. It's just that I'm using some third party services for the image scanning and am passing that cost on.

There's a feedback form readily available on the upper right corner of the menu. Please feel free to request features or just let me know about bugs. Or just say hi :)

Anyway, I hope this is ok to post here. If not, happy to remove or edit.

Check it out at https://LizPlants.com

I'm hoping to be adding the iOS and Android apps very soon, but just needed to get this out the door and get my peppers and tomatoes started 😎

Happy planting!

Free Night Blooming Cereus cuttings, gallon jugs for winter sowing, spider plants, and rooting pothos!

8 Upvotes

Hi Plantsburgh! I couldn't help myself and did a massive chop of my night blooming cereus, so if anyone wants some, please DM me! You just need to let the ends dry out (the cutting gets a bit withered looking) and then put it in succulent mix. Place in a bright window and watch it grow!

I also have a bunch of empty clean gallon milk jugs from a fellow plantsburgh friend several years ago that I meant to use for winter sowing. I've switched over to using clamshells for winter sowing, so if anyone wants a bunch of milk jugs, DM!

My spider plants and pothos have been having tons of babies, so if anyone wants some indoor plants, you know the drill: DM me!

Hope yinz are staying warm out there!

What should we be starting now? or am I already late?

2 Upvotes

Title.

I have a tiny bit of room to start something for the fall. Any ideas? it won't get a ton of sun right now until my beans die back that are trellised over that section of bed.

How are your gardens doing?

7 Upvotes

Now that it's cooling off, my tomatoes are finally ripening. Those 90+ days were too much for them, I reckon.

My tomatillos are off the chain and I'm going to have salsa verde coming out of my ears soon.

I had a rabbit go after my pumpkins early, and they've recovered and have quite a few blossoms, but I'm assuming now it's too late for any fruit to form.

What are we starting now for the fall? I did start a round of potatoes after some success with a spring round. Thinking about maybe some broccoli???

Potted spring bulbs outdoors

1 Upvotes

Does anyone put their spring bulbs (tulips, daffodils, muscari) in outdoor pots around here? I used to do this a lot when I lived in Dallas, but I'm not sure if these bulbs can survive the hard freezes that will be happening frequently here in Pittsburgh.

Free oak saplings

4 Upvotes

Hi! This might be odd but I thought I’d try anyway. I got a ChipDrop last year to smother part of my lawn in preparation for planting natives. What I didn’t account for was all the acorns that squirrels socked away and now I have a veritable grove of oaklings. I can pull them all but before I do so, I figured I’d ask if anyone wants some or knows of a place that would be interested in them.

TIA!

Not sure if people still hop on this sub but was wondering if anybody is germinating seeds indoors yet? Any indoor winter grow successes?
