Keep an eye on those Iranians! I don’t think you have to sniff them up and down, but keep an eye on them!

Oh so tempting.....nope.....probably not suitable for the groupKeep an eye on those Iranians! I don’t think you have to sniff them up and down, but keep an eye on them!![]()
Heya C just wondering if you were to use something like the liquid mycorrhizae seed inoculant if that could improve your germination? I have some coming that I’m going to experiment with in some of soil from my decomposed horse dung and just use my well water without any nutrients and see what happens. If anyone knows about this please chime in. Looks like it will be the first week in June before I have warmer weather here but that’s part of the gig.Well, I had 5 seeds of the Iranian and only 1 survived. Hope it's a girl.
The Afghan is NOT the landrace one, it's an AUTO. I couldn't get any to pop. And because I have all these others, I didn't try especially hard. After 2 weeks I tossed 'em.
The Turkish seeds I have 3 survivors and the Beldia Mountain they all germinated.
That's a good idea.Heya C just wondering if you were to use something like the liquid mycorrhizae seed inoculant if that could improve your germination?

This sounds like a great idea. I use mostly rain water, but have well water as a backup, and also grow in horse manure compost.( I have also considered practicing no till gardening)Heya C just wondering if you were to use something like the liquid mycorrhizae seed inoculant if that could improve your germination?

I like to try various strains and methods outdoors. Sometimes it pays off . I will be seeding directly into the soil as soon as it warms up a bit more. I’m cheering for you @ Cpurola this year will be epic!This sounds like a great idea.

My starts are small but seeds will get inoculated and into garden hopefully by Monday soil is warming up I’ll treat the holes as well and see what the great north will bring. From what I’ve read so far this mycorrhiza has a proven track record I’m all in @ old chunky your way ahead of me buddy!!I am cheering for you, you old nerves of steel mofo!

I love seeing mycorrhiza in my composted soil mix. I even get a mushroom growing now an then.My starts are small but seeds will get inoculated and into garden hopefully by Monday soil is warming up I’ll treat the holes as well and see what the great north will bring.

36 more? Hell you’re 70% of the way done! Say you love it!Well, I looked 'em all over today and THINK I have at least 2 females. I tried to take pics of them but my phone/camera wouldn't co-operate.![]()
Put them all outside today and the bronzing that I noticed earlier has subsided.
I still have almost 36 more Autos to transplant.
I get it C the longer we grow it seems like the plant count gets higher every year! Rehab?Well, I looked 'em all over today and THINK I have at least 2 females. I tried to take pics of them but my phone/camera wouldn't co-operate.

This is the year you nail it!!! Have fun in trim jail when you have 30, 5ft Auto's to trim!!Calm down everyone, LOL, you know my luck with these plants and my grows.
I'm bound to do something that will probably kill at least half of them.
Then mother nature steps in and takes a few more.
Just hedging my bets.![]()
