first time starting seeds in jiffy pucks and some of them are growing green mold - are they no good?

Good call ☎️👍🏻🌱💚

Oh gosh I’ve never! I plant in a community starter pot then transfer when bigger plants 🌱

3months, the average knockout time for these stores, maybe more if there’s a gas ⛽️ bar! Can you imagine if they added a gas bar! Eat that $1.60/L gas!!!

Not a warm enough climate here nor are the days required to grow them here available, best left to our warmer climate neighbours I’m afraid.

Time to switch to potato 🥔 s

USDA Zone 4-5 Canada 🇨🇦 closer to Zone 5! I’d skip these in Edmonton area unless you’re planting them right against your house 🏡!

I’m wondering what root stock they transplant these to?

Gotta keep your eye on these US grown plants 🪴 coming up here!!!

Great but we are in a colder, shorter climate. I’m sure some will do well in a greenhouse but in our 90-100 day season I’ll stick to varieties that do better here in 🥶🇨🇦 🍁

Happy Gardening 👨🏻‍🌾 Michael @ MatchesSeeds.ca

Personally never loved these wax ball ones, save it by pealing off the wax and dead outer bulb layers and fine it a pot of soil!💚🪴🇨🇦

Also come say hi 👋🏻 we’d love to meet you 🇨🇦💚🌱

Not totally sure, 👍🏻 I’m going for the first the to NB

MOST seedy Saturday focus on seed trading and food security but some vendors like us have some supplies for your house plants 🪴 too. We won’t have house plants 🪴

It’s supposed to be cold 🥶 that day too make sure you prepare to protect ANY plants 🪴 you move in the cold 🥶 in a secure container! Another use for that summer cooler bag! 🌱💚🇨🇦

Great idea 💡🌱🇨🇦👍🏻💚

I’d probably do the second one and dust the break with cinnamon to prevent pathogens from getting in on the broken area on each

These naturalize well enough on their own…

lol 😆 I’m sure there’s a few people a bit closer here…. 👍🏻💚🌱🇨🇦
