Very saddened to hear of the death of Dr. Melaku Worede. He made a huge contribution to our understanding of agricultural sustainability and the importance of local adaptation.

It's Friday and has been on and off like spring all week. Now that the weekend's coming, it's going to be yucky in #Halifax How typical.
I think I'll go shopping for some #seeds to get #transplants started. I have the veggies all figured out, but does anybody have any recommendations for some #flowers I should try from seed, for this spring and summer.
And where do you recommend for the best selection?

@IamHula
Here you go..
peach and apple trees. The tiny ones are apples. All the others are peaches. Some are quite tall, others just beginning, some yet to sprout from seeds.

The peach orchard is expanding every day. I've had to move things around for some light source.

I put them in a window and hope for the best, when the tiny grow table fills up.

I'm too early starting this year, the rest of my seeds haven't sprouted yet, and I already have foot-high trees. Gave my buddy a pair to look after. Let him raise his own little ones on his window

Ever grow from seed?
Maybe you didn't read my BIO?

I retired young, without a hobby. I decided to grow every seed I found into a tree.

Apples (and other fruit) grown from seed, will not grow up to be a similar taste. They grow wild, but produce good tasting apples (perhaps) but nothing like the parent.

So, I tried to grow an Apple Tree from seed.
I grew a few hundred.
Then I did Pears.. Plum, Peach, Nectarine..

The Yellow Peach was incorrect labeling (I save the name with the seed) @Judeet88 They grew to be Nectarine trees, both have fruited since planting, a few of their seeds are in my freezer stratifying now. I have grown 2nd generation fruit from my own trees since I started this hobby. I've got zero indoor space, but I've run out of an Acre on the ocean, where this has turned into quite the assorted orchard.

Did I tell you about my *Yellow Peach* seed? @Judeet88
In Fall, I bought a (labeled) Yellow Peach. Ate it, saved pit, dried it, cracked it, soaked & stratified it. In March, I grew a tree from it. I've no space. I grew it with a grow bulb in my desk lamp (more on that in a sec). When it reached the lamp, I cut the top off, rooted it too, & when the ground thawed later in Spring, I planted both & had fruit on 2nd year.

How many people, planted trees before Sunrise?

I put in another 8 Apple trees and 4 more peach. Still not getting any plum seeds to sprout. And I lost one down the sink drain this morning, while preparing them.

Do these look like cannabis plants to you? Sure, look closely.. do they?

Well then, you're high 😁. Cause they're trees. Baby trees, treelings, that I grew from some seeds, that I found inside peaches. A prize inside every one.

I grow tonnes of Fruit Trees from seed. It's a hobby, and I'm not just throwing around *ton* for fun, because I've filled an acre so far, and many of those trees now produce fruit too.

After it grew up a bit.

It has no leaves yet, been dormant since November

An internal #thermometer tells #seeds when to #germinate, researchers find.

I wonder if my Fig Tree will come back? I didn't bring it inside until much later, and it's in a cool storage room waiting for the warmer sun to be let out again.
I've had it a few years, it would be nice if it recovers and continues to grow. I have to break pieces off the trees to fit.
I'm finding it hard to kill Pomegranates too. I might have to sell off some cheaply for space. Hold our for a bag of high-quality soil in bartering 😂

Here's my Fig's baby photo.

Pomegranate trees seem very tolerant of winter storage conditions. I try growing every seed I find, but I don't have room for tropical trees. And I have a room full now. I try to kill one off each winter, a mango tree, or grapefruit. But the pomegranate is still alive. I wonder how many years until it flowers or fruits? Anyone growing one?

My Palm Trees got so big, I had to sell them at 4 years. Giant Cactus too

@Judeet88 I'm going out to shovel some snow, here's some photos before I go. These are what I'm currently growing, peach trees, a palm tree, large pomegranate, and some potatoes in a bucket.. #IndoorGardening #Gardening #Seeds #Trees #Treelings #Peach #Palm #Pomegranate #Potatoes #GrowYourOwn #GrowBulb #Orchard 😎

I'm trying to keep my peach trees alive, putting a grow bulb over them for extra daylight hours. 💡

No markings indicate "GROW" on $9/bulb, looks exactly like every other LED bulb? I had to google ID# to be sure. All those letters, except GROW. 🌳 Bothersome.

It's way too early for treelings🌱 . There's no sun, not enough windows & I am not buying any more bulbs. I probably have more, but can't ID a few identical LED ones.
