What should I grow????

[Shawn]

I have edited this thread so many times LOL.....  Ok so let me rename it one LAST time.

Here are some options of seeds I have NOW....  Out of these what do you all think about growing in the Harvest.


Gerbera Jaguar Mix
parkseed.com/jaguar-mix-gerbera-daisy-seeds/p/51338-PK-P1/

Here is a flower that grows 10"-12".   They have bright shades of yellow, pink, red, blue, green, and white (not sure about the blue and green as described on Parks site )  They are said to grow 6-8" wide.




Gazania Sunshine Mix




Vinca Pacifia Polka Dot and Burgundy Halo

parkseed.com/pacifica-burgundy-halo-vinca-flower-seeds/p/02128-PK-P1/

These are said to grow 10-12" in height with a width of 12".   I would plants both in the same unit.

  


Dahlias Watercolor Silks
www.reneesgarden.com/products/dahlia-dwarf-watercolor-silks

These are supposed to grow 12-18" so these may not work in the Harvest.








Question...  maybe @cornne can assist in answering this...  How many pods should I plant and how many seeds per pod?  One I get an answer I will then plant these.  I just want to get opinions.   These were the first seeds to show up.  All the other seeds I order have not shown up yet.

I can add them if they show by Wednesday.  I hope to get them started sooner then later as I would love colorful flowers to recoup with.

[Shawn]

If I am reading correctly, the Gerbera take 10-12 weeks to bloom?  

If so maybe I will not grow these, let me see what comes in by Wednesday.  I will decide then

[Kate]

Those Vinca Pacifia Polka Dot and Burgundy Halo are lovely and I love Dahlias, but the ones I have grown get taller than the 12 inch max height for the Harvest.

[Shawn]

Two more arrive this morning to add to the What Should I Grow Mix .....


Aloha Mix Hummingbird Nasturtiums
www.reneesgarden.com/products/nasturtium-aloha-mix

These grow 10" in height.





Fairy Garden Mix
www.reneesgarden.com/products/fairy-garden-mix

These grow anywhere from 2" to 10" in height.

[Kate]

OMG, they're both beautiful. I'm kurfuddled.

I know too bad I did not plant any months ago LOL...  so now I hope whatever I do decide on will start while recovering.

OOOO The +Fairy Garden Mix is SO pretty! I really would like to grow that in a small machine sometime!

@cornne, would you like some seeds.  They give you alot

Gerberas take FOREVER, and the blooms seem to be scant in the AG. Not from my growing them, but from watching another project on one of the older forums.

The Fairy Mix is so pretty, but I would only plant it  now if there was a GAL in the future. My machines are full .
I do thank you for being so generous, Shawn.

[Shawn]

Ok well if we do that GAL I have PLENTY of seeds

[Kate]

The Fairy Garden Mix would be perfect in my Sprout, and maybe by June or so I'd be good about terminating what I started in there 3 weeks ago. It's possible I may get another Sprout just for flowers. I've been considering it.

I was thinking June in my Sprout as well. Flower lovers speak up!

[Shawn]

Ok this last one showed up today.


Zinnia Profusion AAS Mix
parkseed.com/profusion-aas-mix-zinnia-seeds/p/52213-PK-P1/

These grow 12" to 15", may bee too tall for the harvest.



 

[Kate]

They're beautiful, but if I do the Sprout they're probably too tall for that one too, with the 12 inch max.

So far, I'm rooting for the Fairy Mix...ha...rooting...get it?

Mine(zin profusion mix) came today too! But I would love to do a different one for a gal  if flowers are chosen.But I bet it ends up being hot peppers

[Kate]

That's cool too, if it's a 12 inch max plant.

[Shawn]

I think I'm going to plant the pro fusions or the Aloha mix now. And we can do a flower GAL with the fairy mix starting June.  Like I said I have plenty plenty of seeds.

some of the vege lovers may not have seen the post yet, though.
Many who have space grow veges outdoors ,though.
