I would absolutely love a general gardening forum, and I've advocated for one in the past two or three threads like this one. It usually ends up coming down to "This is for cannabis, go somewhere else for vegetables." which really baffles me.

There are no other forums with a community or features like this one for gardening, and I have no doubt this would be a better resource than any of them after a couple months time. The mindset and knowledge of the people here are unrivaled at any of the other boards I've ever seen. There is such a willingness to learn and share here, and that's what makes it such a great place.

I'm really happy to see that there are a lot more people speaking up this time though, maybe it'll end up a little differently. I sure as hell hope so, that would get me much more interested in gardening. As soon as it decided to stay warm here I'm hoping to plant some peppers and tomatoes this year.

Hi All,

I have another beginner question for yall. I have some habanero seeds that I want to germinate. Can I use the paper towel method to germinate these?

Thanks

Genkisan,

I couldn't find much info on permaculture other than books for sale online. Do you mind giving me a brief overview?

Thanks

You can use the paper towel method to germinate any seeds, or at least smaller seeds. Its giving them constant moisture... give them a bit of light heat too.

Thanks Indicad.


Can some one help me with my sweet basil? Does basil hate to have it's foliage watered? Also, I planted a six pack of basil plants closely together, like in a bunch. Should I have planted them a few inches apart instead to let them spread?

Thanks

Has anyone here ever seen two squash merge into one?

They got too close together and melded with each other....

I bet you it's twice as tasty! (lol)

I have like 4 diff variaties of tommatoes, 6 diff peppers, 3 watermellon , 2 hops clones on the way, tobbacco seeds on the way, and hopefully some more ethnos that can stand my outdoor climate. In total 36 plants not including mj... waiting for some more ideas on what to grow also.

I found a awsome website that gives out free seed/ cuttings of a large amounts of plants. The selection is unbelivable really

Its a .gov website but its the USDA... Ill break the link anyways so copy and past and take out the space.

Bongasaurus,
I agree,
I think a general gardening forum would be a great idea.
Back in the day, I used to love the general gardening forum over at Overgrow.

peace,

I am interested in doing some general gardening as well. But I have no idea what I want to plant yet! However, I am prepping.
