For the last couple of weeks I have been carrying the
potted hybridizing plants into the greenhouse. These
potted plants are mostly the selected plants from the crop
of 2016 seedlings. I do have a few named plants I also
bring in to use with some of the seedlings.
When I
bring them in, they are cleaned, trimmed and then
Milorganite, a pre-emergent (yes, I do get weeds in the pots inside), Bayer Tree and Shrub, and
Epsom Salts are added. About once a week, they are misted
with Miracle Grow 16-6-8. As you can see, they have
started to grow already.
If you
want to see some of the seedlings I will be using, go to
our website at www.chattanoogadaylilies.com and click on
the seedling page. This is what keeps me moving and
saying, "Life is very, very good".
On the
far left are this years seedlings and on the far right are
a few seedlings that I held over from last year that have
not bloomed as yet.
