Backer everwhere.

That's not a bad problem to have. It's better than seedlings all over the house.

 

[DGBAMA]

Thinking of starting seedlings in the kiln next year. Add a light and timer......instant ideal growing conditions.

Oh, I'm all over that. Mr. stroke of genius. I think I'll refer to it as the bama approach.

sound's like a good deed, done,

 

[Boboro]

She pays good but cant find nobody that cares about that kinda work. I like the work and to learn about stuff I don't know. Flower gardenen ant for pansies. 97 F. And in the sun most of the day.

 

[Boboro]

I didn't think I was ever goin to finish that job. Now back to the backer patch. I had sprayed round up on my grassy patch last weekend and weedwacked it yesterday. Im putting down treflan today and pullin stumps. I got some suckers ready to cut and some of my grow out plants. Is it better to leave the seed head on the plant or dry it seprate.

 

[deluxestogie]

I think the bud heads will dry up more quickly if they are separated from the stalk.

[Boboro]

I looked real close at them. They have a lot of green pods and none of the brown ones have fell off or lost much seed. I think Ill wait to cut them. the leaf is very ripe if I take them off how many shoud I leave?

 

[Boboro]

 

[deluxestogie]

My impression has been that once you have full seed pods, even if they are still green, removing all the leaf has no visible impact.

Bob

 

[Boboro]

Thanks, Ill take the leaf off and let the pods brown up more.

 

[Knucklehead]

Can the thin leafy covering over some of the seed pods still be green if the pod itself is brown? Is that how to tell if they are ready? Does anyone have a picture of a seed head right before harvesting the seed head?

 

[workhorse_01]

You can harvest them then but let them finish drying. (until the pod splits in to two halves) If you try to separate them while the outside thin pod wrapper is green they are immature and will stick to the inside.
