If it anything like here mackka nothing,i am p----ing myself :lol: at these hoarders, they have cleaned every vegie seed up,none to be found anywhere, and half the clowns would not know which end of the seed needs to go into the ground first :lol:

Those veggies are looking great, I'm keen to get some chilli growing soon. That's if the hoarders have left any seeds by the time I get to the shop.

Chilli seed tends to not last very long. After about a year the germination rate goes right down. So careful if you purchase from the shops.
Happy to share fresh seed if you want some. Only problem is I got my varieties mixed up and apart from some being super hot I don't know what they are.

Nearly everything done now except the caps and chillies.

My end of the world virus harvest yesterday.

All the chillie seeds I have purchased from eBay have turned out cross pollinated except for purple ufo and big jims

Experienced a mystifying result growing snap peas this year. Two pots, same potting mix, with wire trellis and six seeds in each. One pot of seeds took off (metre high) adding to many green salads over summer. The other pot was a miserable lot produced only a handful of pods?
Real mystery, can not fathom why this happened, maybe a pea grower has some idea?
Beans and garlic are now thriving.

Heya Mackka I've got onions,corn, snowpeas, beans, asian lettuce, normal lettuce (selfsown).... but if you look back over the posts on here for around these dates in other years you'll get a good idea from then too.
Up here you can grow whatever you want really but with shorter and shorter daylight days some things may be shorter in height when they fruit.
like my corn atm won't end up being super high and over loaded with cobs
.... but it'll still be nice and juicy and give me some more seeds for next time too.

Gday Blair, still herb plants and seeds in the shops..... look on the floor for seeds too, as,.... if the pack broke from the hanger it could be behind stuff.
like the one n only Son No.1 found on our seed n plant hunting foray today.
This one.

Thought.... yeah ok.... we can do that lol.
:Y: :flowers:

 

[silver]

Here's mine atm
I put corn and asian lettuce in my ginger and tumeric bed.... plenty of room for it all in there just now as there's not much of the latter two yet

Probably a big no no but my peas and beans are in the same spot as last time sorta.... salad onions and shallots on the right.

I'm gunna thin the strawberries out

and put them in here (just three rows)

And in the cane bale bed

the bales have been sitting and getting watered on occasion and rained on too since late last year

and they've broken down nicely

cause I finally got seed potatoes for the job.... hopefully they thrive.

I set up a wet fertilizer bin

with guinea pigs bedding (finally they will earn their keep)

we've been enjoying our red pawpaws

so much so that I've planted eight of these around the place (they can fight over survival of the fittest)

and I did a swap with a nice lady for one of my many the same orchids.... she was happy to get one of mine in flower too....street find transaction over about a year lol.

we were both very happy :Y:
anyway.... thats my lot atm.

Posted elsewhere on here tonight by myself.

I personally bought some potting mixes and chook poo today so that I can grow some potted food plants to hand around family and friends.
You will soon find that the hoarders will hit these products without regard to green thumbs at all.... my advice would be to think ahead if you plan to garden like normal and/or intend to supply or teach others any botanical knowledge in a way that could help them learn how to do the same for themselves and purchase the products you know you will need now. It takes time to compost products ready for sale so once the current products get taken the resupply may not be immediate at all (but it will happen over time).
But as we have seen with all other products (ie-toilet paper) once a move has been made to stokpile the likelihood of Mr&MrsX being able to find supply falls to almost nill.
this is what I purchased (a lot for 4 tomato plants I know)lol

Just thought I should share the same on this thread too :Y:
