Hi stillmanz
no ,i dont remove any flowers because they tend to remove themselves readily ,so i see no need.
about the 1000 assam seeds, well no story ,
just real low germination/survival rates {about 3%}
so it took alot to get some good plants.

good luck all

:rolleyes: My two seedlings still have their seed hats on.


Don't they know it is rude not to take your hat off in the presence of a lady?
 
Maybe they think I'm not lady-like enough to raise their hats :( They're stuck on solid.

*I'm not very lady-like at times, I have a dirty mind but I'm short, so maybe the song's right.
 
6 weeks from planting....

Baby Nagas now have their own home...I would love to keep them isolated and collect the seeds...

Nice BB...question...why do you have the plants in the cage?
 
question...why do you have the plants in the cage?

They love the heat from the concrete that it sits on esp over night & my cat also loves to dig up seedlings to relieve itself hence the fort knox type cage :P
 
Understand...

I put bird netting around my tomatoes. Two years ago, I lost about half of my tomatoes to birds....holes pecked in the tomatoes as soon as they started turning red...put the bird netting up last year and didn't lose a single tomato.
 
Disaster struck again. My cat knocked over my best Naga Morich, and although it may still be barely alive, its going to the compost. Of the hundreds of plants I have, he had to find the one that I was babying the most. I guess I can't blame the cat, he got locked in my plant room for a full day and it was the one day that I was ill and didn't check my plants. I also had to scoop cat shit out of one of my bigger plants. I have one decent Naga M remaining but its still way behind because of aphids. At least my Dorset Nagas are doing well.
 
Seems you have had some awful bad luck this year Potawie...maybe all the bad luck will have gone by the time it comes to actual planting out...I hope so...
 
that is strange isn't it....well, I took the day off work today...time to get busy and finish transplanting...only 40 more to go....
