Re: testing

Still thinking about seed starting. I do alot of field work 9 days on and 5 days off 170 miles away from home each april-end June.
Kinda puts a damper on starting seed for my gardens or even getting any veggies in.  

I do have a little in-house greenhouse set up I've been using for propagation.
Great fun-trimed back everything I could (most really needed it anyway)!!
I had the best time with some split leaf philo stem cuttings after I broke a branch moving the monster. 13 of 15 sprouted very nicely.
Have some fern spores I'm trying to get going and I know that's going to try my patience, lol!!
Killed a fiddle leaf fig transplanting it but before it was completly and totally toast, I took the one cutting that seemed 1/2 way alive-looks like it will be ok as it's sprouting a small bud at the top.

I'm using IAA to see if that speeds the process and it looks (from some sansevaria leave cutting experiments) that roots are
faster and bigger with than without it.

What's everyones else up to?

Hi, don't mind me, I'm just making sure I'm connected.  I just joined, but
the confirmation did not specify the address to use.  I'm pretty sure this
will work. Thanks.
