"I grow morning glories and both madame galan orange trumpet vine and a yellow trumpet vine. The yellow has large trumpets that large ants love. They look like carpenter ants, anyone else have this problem and is there a solution."

rose hewitt commented on Garden-Share's group Vegetable Gardens"Not to get off your topic but wondered if I should be ordering sweet potatoes from catalogue now since they go quickly or try to make my own from store bought. How long does it take to make a 10 inch slip when you dangle a potatoe in water and…"

Growing up and still…"

Hi, I hope everyone has been able to take advantage of the unusual weather in the Northeast. Suprisingly I found broccolli and some late started cauliflower still to be found in my garden today. Has anyone taken the agriculture certificate program if so what did you think.

I've been saving my own flower seeds for quite a few years. I found that choosing the biggest, brightest flower etc., to dry brings the strongest genes for the next year. Then I started growing a few veg. and my Black Pearl Peppers are now from my own peppers for about 5 years. I have done the easy herbs like parsley (which actually self-sow here) and am learning how to get the more advanced ones to set seed for me. I still buy some, though, as, like all of us, have just so many feet of lights and time to pot on. Some things just grow so easy from seed too. Zinnias for example. I always grow them in pots now, as the foliage stays nice and it looks awful when I plant in ground. They make a nice tall plant for a pot anyway, and the flowers really last here. This is a harsh climate, so anything that lasts outside becomes a yearly plant for me. Thanks for friending me. Good gardening, Marian
