Some people swear by moon phases, and others ignore them with out complaint.
so true, I know some folks who really do seem to have a green thumb, and their gardening projects are the envy of all.
My Grandparents were some of those..but one thing they did do, was set eggs for hatching, plant crops, destroy weeds, etc by the "Farmer's Almanac".
Since I don't have a green thumb like them, I try to at least use the Farmer's Almanac, or the Cheaper free Fanick's Printout in my usually substandard efforts.
I suspect one big difference is they had red sandy loam, and I have clay soil..hmm, they also had a big field, and a tractor..
The seed will be available in December. I was checking their website every day to be sure I could get some so decided to write them. They sold out of that last year.
I have the same problem with Sunflower tubers. Can't get any now. I've found only one place to get the white variety that look like regular Russet potatoes, not the knobby smaller kind. I need to send that place an email asking about them.
After planting all the seed I did under the grow lamp, I remembered this morning I forgot to put the giant Zinnia seed in cups under that light so did that this morning.
That grow lamp on that stand is the best thing I have done to get seeds started without critters eating them. I just flipped the switch when I got up today instead of having to go outside and move the cups into the sun and then worry they would get eaten, then move them out of the sun when it got too hot and cover them up again so they wouldn't get eaten.
