what a fun thread.. I love to hear yet another method of rooting cuttings.. the toilet paper roll cardboard sounds promising.. lots of air with the moisture .. everyyear I'm always going to but don't make an aeroponics chamber.. [ a spray of a fine micron spray every few minutes .. with plenty of air drying time in between ..a little different than hte hydroponic or cloning chambers that use a constant water bath for rooting ] I guess it will be when I'm out.. and can make use of 100's of brugs.. but I manage too many right here already with out it..
What might make me move out faster.. is being able to get to a place.. where
I am able to get some white pea fowel with emrald green spotting.. Ken.. yours are the lovliest... I offered one to mother.. but she declined.. having had the last common ones that roamed the yard she had stolen.. enough she thinks with the dozens of cockers.. and dozens of bengals she breeds and sells.. at 88.. a trooper.. oh.. and dozens of brugs..
OH Ken... are the pea fowel really dead set aganst snakes.. A friend had some of them and said they were the best anti snake warriors
we had snow here yesterday.. a few flakes almost hit the ground.. we've had snow.. but no frosts yet.. and no temperatures below 38 * F.. is this global warming..
I'm still running 3 brugs in the ground [ in the local park ] with plenty of good looking leaves and stilll trying to push out blooms.. going to try and keep them alive and grow out from the the roots in the ground here..
i'd thought I'd wait to give them a frost first.. to get the sap driven back to the roots before lopping off the tops and mulching.. don't really know if this thought is helpful.. or even desirable.. but here goes..
the cuttings here... the black bucket in the lower right of the photo.. is filled with water.. and a wire basket to hold the cuttings.. and an air stone pump in the bottom then up to a series of plastic containers..starting with 12 oz water bottles then on ot 1 and then two liter bottles..
