Hey guys, reporting in with my rocket.
I have sown waaayy too many seeds, this being my first time ever dealing with anything other than bonsais.
How big do these need to be until I can transplant them into my garden?
And how would I go about it? Are there any special tricks or things I need to be aware of?

holy shit that made me laugh. Whats your climate like? Why didnt you plant straight into the garden? Just loosely disturb the soil, throw seed making it not too dense, then loosely disturb the soil again.

No special tricks, just whatever works making sure you dont destroy the roots. I would grab them out along with a good handful of soil underneath and then tease the roots apart very softly

Oh...okay
I'm in Melbourne, so we're currently in winter. This time of year is normally around 11-16°c
I didn't plant straight into the garden because I didn't have any room, and I was impatient. I only cleared a patch now in the garden which used to house a shit load of wood and other junk.
So I can transplant the rocket to that patch, but I'm considering perhaps just buying some seeds again and planting it now directly in the garden

Im in Melb too. Get some spinach seeds too while you're at it. Whats the rocket currently planted in? you could probably leave it and let it self thin and it would last fine, as long as theres a few inches of soil under it in whatever planter box you're using.

Remember that its worth spending a touch more for better (heirloom) seed. Preferably something like diggers rest, you can grab from CERES or BAAG if you're in the Northern 'burbs.

Will they naturally thin? And how long does this process take?
I might get some Spinach. I want heirloom seeds. I bought the rocket seeds from bunnings and there's nothing on the packets indicating they're non-GMO and the like. But the snow peas I bought are.
Also, I live in the west, but go to uni in the northern suburbs, so I might buy some

If you are going to transplant, I'd grab handfuls and plant them by the handful. Trying to seaparte those little guys to plant indiviudally will be tricky. Keep them in big clumps and you can harvest with the "cut and come again" method.

Rocket also germintates really quickly. You could leave thsi batch and just start another in the garden.

Don't feel bad anon (about the gmo thing). Some people are just destined to live and die retarded. It's all part of God's plan. Since seeds are so cheap no matter what you get of course you should get organic. No dna damage from the fucked up shit they put on conventionally grown food or from the fuck up shit they do to the whole genome in the pursuit of a "really red apple" etc. Anyone who has faith that we know exactly what we are doing (and not doing) to the food we modify knows just enough to be dangerous and not a lick more.

Look up inbreeding depression if you are going to do this. Some plants, like melons, don't give a shit about being inbred. Most, if not all of the harmful recessive alleles have already been selected against. Other plants, like corn, require a fairly large population to prevent inbreeding depression. For corn, the general rule of thumb is that you need a minimum population of 200 and you should save seed from a minimum of 100. Things like melons and beans are on the extreme end of not giving a shit, and corn is on the extreme end of needing a large population.

You should have a basic understanding of each species, or at least each genus/family that you grow with regards to this. Beans are radical inbreeders, and you have to try to get crosses between two bean cultivars. Onions are something that you might only need to save seed from 6 or 10 plants.

If you don't have enough room to grow the requisite minimum numbers of plants for a given species, you can network with other seed savers and exchange seeds. You can also mix seeds up from previous years to make up for it, e.g. if you only have enough room for 100 cornstalks, next year, you would plant seed that you saved this year, plus last year. Add a little from 2014 for even more safety.

you're wrong. I'm actually very poor but I've gotten to see the difference between organic produce and inorganic produce. I committed to organic food as much as possible after eating nothing but pastured eggs for months with their very orange yolks and afterword buying some cheap egg and being very surprised in a bad way at their pale yellow yolk. That made me realize the difference diet makes in chickens and thus in humans too. Eating the right things is very important and getting it from soil that isn't monocropped and sprayed with bullshit and had its fungal duff destroyed is very important too. That's why I want to grow as much of my own organic food as possible. Because I'm poor.

They still use pesticides and fertilizers. It is just that those are certified as organic.

Don't make general sweeping proclamations like that. There are too many variables that attribute to the taste-texture composition of vegetables grown using any methods. It can depends on when they are harvested, how far they must travel, weather, and so on for all types of produce.

Like every fresh strawberry I can find in local stores comes from California. That's well over 2,000 miles away. Those strawberries don't hold a candle to all varieties of strawberries I grow, in terms of flavor, and I don't do anything to mine except weed them. I don't even water them. The biggest difference is actually when I harvest. Since these go from the garden to my mouth, I can wait until they are as ripe as they can be before they start to rot. California growers that ship to my state can't wait that long. If they did, the strawberries would be rotten by the time they got here. Thus, the ones form California are more tart and have less sweet flavor.

As tip, if you want sweeter strawberries from the store, get the frozen ones. They are typically harvested later or don't pass the inspection because they are too ripe for normal shipment.

Let me chime in, I'm personally somewhat in the middle. I'm not against using """chemicals""" per se (every fucking thing in existence that isn't vacuum is a chemical), I have a more realistic look at it, so things like bio-degradability and long term affects should definitely be assessed and you have to find some healthy middle point (which for everyone has a different exact location)
Then again, for example strawberries you can buy at the mall or at roadside stands have been selected/bred for mass (yield per area) so they are watery and tasteless as fuck compared to what you can get out of your own garden, it's because people are just too scroogy, they don't want to pay €5/kg for a high quality product but rather €2-3/kg for a mediocre one, this sadly defines the mass market, it's human psychlogy at work
On the other hand there is for example the "Neuland" certificate (a German thing several classes above regular "organic"), but a single chicken raised that way will set you back €30, which is excessive on the other end of the spectrum for me, no way I'm paying this much. So while I see €2.50/chicken Aldi mass ware as too cheap, I'd be willing to pay around €10 personally

Agree with you both. I just find though, more often than not, that the 'organic' label is just no guarantee of quality. I've bought organic produce and found no difference in quality from it's conventionally produced brethren. The only difference is price.

The only time I've had good tasting produce is when I got some from a local guy who knows what he's doing. He wasn't qualified as organic, but he mostly avoided non-organic sprays and treatments. He produced pears, apples, apricots, and grapes. Chicken eggs too.

"Organic" is just a government label. If you want a lot of that really good and unique stuff, sometimes the best option is to grow it yourself and not worry about "organic." You can get cultivars to grow that you never see on a grocery store shelf, and you can ensure that your soil is nice and healthy.

Yeah, it's best to start growing your own stuff to really check out the differences by yourself. I'm only into gardening for a year now, and I admit it takes lots of time and you have to overcome lots of failures (stupid ass potato blight on my tomatoes, REEEEEE), but if you get some sort of enjoyment out of it and don't directly calculate the time you've spent in your garden to money you could've made on your job (it's a really atrocious ratio, financially wise you only ""make""" about €2/hour in your garden or less nominally) but if you value the fact that it's your own produce, it's still "worth it" on personal level and you gain lots of experience

I for example never enjoyed any store-bought potatoes nearly as much as the own ones, the taste really is better from experience. Let alone F. vesca strawberries, small yield but such a unique, intense taste to them and you don't get to buy them anywhere

tl;dr you have to enjoy gardening at least a bit, sure there's annoying parts to it like pulling weeds, but once you get the hang of it it's a rather fun thing, also as a small bonus you get to lose weight without paying for a gym membership

Another anon here.

To me the issue is not whether something is organic or GMO. Those terms are almost meaning less. Corn is technically GMO.

The real issue is the health cost/benefits and how the megacorps (like Monsanto) abuse and use farmers, growers, ect to make a profit. If a GMO plant produces more food more easily and there no health costs then there is little reason not to grow it.

The health costs are both on the environment and on the humans and animals eating the food grown.

Any of y'all potato growers indulge in some new potatoes? Friend of mine just harvested some and invited me to eat some with fresh dill. So excited.

On another note, is thier a way to harvest some tubers without killing the plant? I'd like to have new potatoes during the season, but leave the rest in until later for a fall harvest and winter storage.

Freshly harvested potatoes don't have much flavor. They need to sit around someplace cool for about 2+ months. Their skin will thicken as they age and they will deepen in flavor. You do the same thing with sweet potatoes and sunchokes (as little as 2 weeks for sunchokes in the fridge).

> If a GMO plant produces more food more easily and there no health costs
there is no reason to assume there are no long-term healths costs. No reason at all. It's reckless to assume so because all they (monsanto, genetic modifiers) check for is "Did this thing turn the color we want/kill the bug we don't like/not die under X conditions" and "Did it result in immediate death of humans like super fast?" If the answer is yes and no then they send it out and call it food. That is a humongously stupid litmus test just like it would be dumb to call something unhealthy because it doesn't "make you super healthy and strong like super fast."

Just like no food will make you healthy overnight, no food will kill you overnight. So it is too soon to say there are no healthcosts to non-organic, GMO food unless you're a retard. Are you a retard, anon?

Foxglove is actually poisonous, and coneflowers are tough and resistant to most critters, and both come back every year. Marigolds are also resistant, but you replant them. Roses are a good choice too, since they scream 'fuck off' with thier thorns.

Deer are attracted to tender, tasty things (like hostas and lilies), while squirrels are fond of bulbs (like tulips and daffodils). The damn tree rats also just like to dig in soft, disturbed soil, so deter them from digging up your freshly installed plants with wire mesh over the soil or a thick layer of woodchips.

I've never used them, but it always seemed to me that they needed an ambient light source from a window. Especially with tall, dense, foliage plants like peppers and especially tomatoes. The short herbs and greens, not so much.

However, I grow greens in the winter using only some cheap, 4-feet long, double bulb, $25, shop lights. I used 2 of them over top some long trays I made. I had salad and cooked greens all winter. Although, they do cost more to run for electricity than LED lights.

I was growing lamb's quarters, spinach, hairy bittercress, and chickweed. (pics related) The only problem was the heat from the lights caused the spinach to bolt. So, a fan is required to vent the hot air out. That was due to the fact that I put aluminum reflectors on the sides to help bounce some light back in. Which really helped the plants grow more uniformly (a thing lacking I see with the AeroGarden designs).

I also made some chains out of fencing wire that I used to raise and lower the lights with when I was working with the plants and as they plants grew up. You have to keep the lights very close to the plants, less than two inches from their leaves. I'd usually wait until they reached to about 1/8" of an inch from the lights then raise the lights. I found that it was better to have all one type of plants under only one light because different types grow upwards at different speeds.

They are super easy to grow and are extremely tasty. Right now I have tons of lamb's quarter and purslane in my pepper beds. All of it gets eaten when I weed them out. I eat them fresh, cooked as greens in recipes that call for collards/spinach, I pressure can them, etc.

I don't even have to plant lamb's quarter most of the time. I merely scratch up the top inch of soil, water it, and wait. Or, you can seed one area heavily, till them in, and have them coming up fresh every time the soil is disturbed for years and years to come.

Too many trees in neighbors yards shading the garden. So now we mostly grow the stuff we like the most carrots, beans, and corn.

Neighbor to the west planted 8 trees in their backyard, and they've grown to the size to make about half the garden unsuitable for many plants. I grew potatoes in that shaded half last year. They got tall, spindly and flopped over but still managed to produce quite a few large potatoes so I planted them again this year.

Squash has male and female flowers, and its the female flowers are the ones that set fruit. Probably all the flowers your seeing are male. Don't worry, it'll get female flowers, and therefore fruit, after this initial flush of male flowers. It might be a couple of weeks though.

In the meantime you can eat the flowers in stir-fry or batterd and fried, very tasty.

Don't worry, even if you don't have "le speshul turbo crop graft", it still makes for nice ornamentals (I pulled my 2 genetic twins from a seed out of a store-bought run-of-the-mill lemon about a year ago), they now also start giving off their scent on their own (especially in hot weather) without me having to rub the leaves
Of course harvesting them isn't really my priority, they haven't flowered yet so far and it may take several years for them to start doing so if raised from seed.
Also grafts generally suck when it comes to longevity desu

Also the bloomed flowers seem to be wilting/falling off really fast.

Keep the pollen bit from the inside so when you get female flowers you can manually pollinate them without needing to wait for bees or birds to do it

You can use any recipes calling for collards or spinach. That and leaves for salad are the most common uses. I prefer the young tender under 12 inch stems and leaves in the spring. The stems get stringy then woody as they age, but the leaves and tips are still fine eating.

Small update.

That stump is GONE! It took longer than I wanted due to oppressive heat and humidity. I'm still shoveling gravel. I have the landscaping timbers I need and all the fencing I need. All the remaining paths are prepped for gravel; with plastic underlayment.

I can't wait to get the new fence up and electrify it. There's something starting to eat my tomatoes and all the cats in the neighborhood think my garden is a fine litter box.

I'll hill up the soil, around the stems, and bury the stems laying on the ground. I don't think dividing them up into new plants will help and doing so mean more work for me.

the seed is ready to be harvested if it starts looking dry, it'll lose that 'fresh' look that it has now.

I'm not sure why the other guy is talking about the stems drying out as I've never seen that happen on mine.

you don't really have to wait until it's ready though, you can just collect them and dry them afterwards, they'll probably have a lower germination rate though.

This should be mild enough to plant them out in a permanent spot in the garden (8a here and almost every garden in the area has some), which is the optimum thing for them - let me show again the comparison between individuals of three sets of cuttings that were raised the same way and were in very spacious pots, only difference being planted out in April, May and June respectively (pics were taken a few weeks ago, meanwhile all of them have progressed quite a bit more), seems they really prefer being not rootbound
There isn't too much winter rain here though (about 30mm each month January to April which are the driest months), and they still don't like to be planted into heavy clay soil, so mix in some sand and/or give it a raised position for improved drainage

Are these like hog panels, or a roll of woven wire?

What's the spacing of verticals and horizontals? Do you try to keep the wire suspended off the ground? How do you connect the wire to the rods? What do you use as a gate?

You can see the rolls in the photos, >>820855 bottom pic in the center. Holes are 2" x 4". Not woven, just welded. Heavy gauge. It will be just above landscaping timbers. The rods have metal hangers on them. However, I may actually be putting up some landscaping timbers as posts too; which is what I normally use. I have a ton of various fencing things from various old projects. I'll wing it until I get something I like that is properly isolated and solid. Fencing is 4 feet high, but I was going to use 2 feet high stuff but it is twice as expensive as the 4' stuff.

Gates will be hog panels, big welded rod-like stuff.

Yeah, pollination would be my guess. I planted 5 or 6 on a row on one side of one of my grow beds - I gave them a structure to climb but let them bunch of a little first. They were going good until aphids attacked the hell out of them (brought it under control using herb oil spray - safe for fish).

They've grown good with 7.0-7.4 pH and low-ish potassium in the system.

Not that anon, but I stopped listening to the news about 20 or so years ago. It is all the same thing over and over through the decades. There's always some minority demographic being abused/protesting for their rights. Always destabilization in the middle east. Always some new killer virus. Always some political bashing. Always some new way to give more power to the government. Always sensationalist violence. You should be angry about this and sympathetic about that.

Not worth my time. Not even for weather reports even though I'm a farmer. It is the same weather as always. Always the hottest day, the coldest day, the biggest storm ever, the most snow ever seen, etc.

So, I go outside to my garden and look around. No violence, no random minority group protesting, no killer viruses, no government, no politicians, just me and nature. I farm, I harvest, I eat, and go about local business.

If where you live is filled with shit you don't like, move to a better location, or fix it.

Has anyone grown marigolds from seed? I wanted mint marigolds for my garden, but as I couldn't find plants, I ordered seeds. I tried sprouting them indoors like all my other plants, in a dome on heat mat. The others-like peppers and tomatoes-sprouted fine, but none of the marigolds did. I tried two times, and each time they never sprouted. Did I get scammed and you cant actually propagate marigolds from seed or something?

Lamiaceae in general are absolute light guzzlers. While mint and lemon balm are exceptions to this (they grow non-leggy here on an Eastern window even at 50°N during winter, meaning only 8.5h daylight in that period), rosemary, thyme and oregano already don't like the southern window during equinox (still slightly leggy), while sage will become extremely leggy even if backed by alu foil coated cardboard, and even in places outside in the gaden where there's no complete full sun all day.
So this is how I'd rank them: Lemon balm and mint accept partial shade, rosemary and thyme will do acceptably well in the garden if not all sunny and only do well if in full sun, while sage requires all the sun it can get, does best during our 16 hour days in late June combined with clear weather

A lot of lettuce won't even germinate if it is too warm. It is a cool weather plant. Spinach is probably the same way with the germination, and it is also a cool weather plant. I normally wait until mid to late August when things have cooled off around here to plant that stuff for the fall.

Besides, heat causes lettuce to bolt, which makes it taste like shit. Also, if I have a cover ready to go, the lettuce will grow all winter and I can have fresh lettuce that way. I'm in 8b, BTW.

I'd say so, from my experience with sage. The seeds planted in February behind the window, with always around 20-30°C germinated fine, but then I tried a second batch in May, and I realised it got extremely hot under the plastic foil covered pot (to keep up moisture) as it sat in the sun (>50°C), and none of the ~10 seeds I put in there ever sprouted

Definitely not lack of sun, more likely the overwatering (hence the fusarium worry). They are potted and were doing great initially but suddenly dropped off after the first couple of fruit sets started to mature. I have a few watermelons in a raised bed that are still doing very well though.

Did you use loamy soil for the watermelons you potted? I'm wondering if that would make a significant difference.

Probably not. If I remember correctly parsley is one of the herbs that actually tastes better with a certain amount of stress. If you're really worried though you could add an all purpose fertilizer or add a little liquid seaweed, its like the sriracha of plants. Also remember with the food just sitting on the top like that its not actually going into the plants, you need to mix it into the soil so the nutrients can leech out.

let the roots get nice and long in the paper towel before planting in soil. i grow super hots and they achieve cotyledons much faster this way.

Yeah I have a lot of stuff in pots but a lot of stuff just doesn't take well to containers. I planted a few things in the tiny garden that's there. Planted a large tithonia rotundifolia and some helianthus Maximilianii. Basically stuff that grows taller rather than wide. Then again I did plant some gaillardia that has grown all over the cement path since there's not enough room for it,thats another one that doesn't grow well for me at all in a container but in the ground it goes crazy. At least the garden here has a an old rose that is quite large and nice looking. Pic related is dianthus, something that actually does better in container than the soil here.

>>822786
I don't know actually. They do have a small ( very small compared to carrots, then again the ground here is far too compact for root vegetables to form properly) but thick-ish white tap root that they can keep growing back from. They looked similar to the parsley though. Actually I just googled it and I think it is that wild carrot. Interesting!

Cats are not invasive because they don't do well in the wild. They tend to be predated on by many animals that eat the kittens. The only ones that survive are normally being fed by humans and may even have special shelters made for them.

Invasive species become naturalized to the area they are introduced to. If they don't naturalize, they can't become invasive.

We are talking about wild-living cats. Which are not invasive. Cats that are owned are also not invasive, though they do well as a species.

Cats in the wild don't spread unless people feed them or leave out things they can eat. Without direct human-made food wild cats starve. They are not like raccoons which can survive in the wild on their own without human-made foods.

>they don't have to be naturalized.

That's the first prerequisite for being "invasive".
