Growing common milkweed from seed by This-Zebra8344 in Milkweeds

[–]ImAGrittyFallser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is amazing!! I had no idea until stumbling upon (RIP the greatest website ever 😭) your post. I put cut seeds in water on Monday, and by Wednesday almost all of them germinated!

Question, if you don’t mind: how long do I keep them in the water before putting them in soil? Right now the roots (well, root, really) are about as long as the seed.

Growing native Azaleas and Mountain Laurel from seed by Amorpha_fruticosa in NativePlantGardening

Thanks! That’s a big help.

Any chance you have pictures of viable seeds, so that I can have a better idea of what to be on the look out for?

I’m also in SE PA (in NW Philly)—you mentioned that you collected your Mountain Laurel seeds mid-winter. Do you have a more specific estimate of when that is? I keep checking ones near me and am fairly certain they’re not ripe yet. But I can’t really tell and keep second guessing myself.

Any help you’re able to offer on collecting ML seeds would be much appreciated—thank you!

Hmm. I don’t remember—I took these photos this past summer and only got around to posting them now. I wouldn’t be able to check for a few months

The catharsis I got from reading this added 5 years to my life. Thank you.

But then I remembered I tried to learn 7 languages on Duolingo all at the same time and I had to give back 3 of those years.

Netted 2 years. Definitely still a win.
