Brugmansia/Datura update

Sounds like Brug etc. all thriving well.
Where are your seedlings ?
In seed trays ?
I have passion flower seedlings growing in little pots all over my kitchen worktops ! Currently just keeping the soil damp.
Any extra advice welcome. Thanks.:o)

You're obviously someone who knows his onions - right? I put some we had grown this year in my greenhouse to use throughout the winter but forgot they were there. Yesterday I wanted one for the stew I was making but when I went out there, all the onions were frozen solid. Will they be any good to eat when they thaw out or should I get rid of them? Onionless stew was OK was not quite the same!!

Ff ~ you will be returning to LOTS of questions. LOL

I hope you can advise us all. :o)

TT, They are indeed in seed trays in a propagator,

Ihave never grown Pasionflowers so cant help there, but would willingly take excess of your hands if that would help,
From the kindness of my heart as a favour to you, LOL.

HiGee, nice to hear from you, some Onions prove to be better keepers than others depending on the variety,
i would suggest you try them and see if they are still firm after thawing, if so they are worth trying,

I have tried the Autumn typs this time just to bridge the gap
These were planted from sets in the autumn along with my Garlic, and both seem to be doing well, best wishes, Dave.

Do you have your fuchsias in a heated place ? Mine are all dormant with no leaves or flowers.

Your Brugmansias are doing well Ff...what will you do with them for the next couple of months before they go outside?

Well Hi, Hywel,Yes one of the greenhouses has an electric heater keeping the temp at around 5-7 degs.

this as not been easy the last week as you know,

In the cold greenhous they have gone completely dormant and have to take there chances.

Hello Janey, i will have to try to keep them going in the heated greenhouse,
i did not expect them to germinate so fast,
may keep them on the window sill for a while indoors if allowed to get away with it, Ha ha

Ha.... we have only a cold greenhouse Ff..but want to try these...so will leave it till early Spring.

My passion flower seedlings are all tiny right now,
I'm not sure what to expect. With a spell of warm weather, they could reach the kitchen ceiling. :o)

I love onions, and they are good for you. As I can't grow them any more I buy them from my local farm shop so they are close to 'home grown'.

Great blog FF. I had the same thing happen with my Datura seeds. It said they were supposed to take anywhere from 30 to 60 days to germinate but two came up in about 15 days.

Hi Gilli, was that this year or previous year, i only ask becouse i wondered how the progressed from seedlings to mature plants.

Hello PG, how boring food would be without Onions,
The thing i enjoy is making an onion rope with them,
it always looks so professional,

TT, I would think not letting them get too warm would help along with plenty of light,
We do tend to spoil our little charges dont we.

Heck is that the time, late for work again.
THIS SITE HAS A LOT TO ANWER FOR,LOL
