For most of the US this cold blast will be the last and it will be time to start getting our hands dirty. I have a 12 acre farm that fully supports my family and leaves plenty left over for storage and the future. While I'm biased a bit, I think it's time to bring back victory gardens.
Get out there, dig in the dirt, and plant some seeds.
Feel free to ask advice here!
Thx fren! I actually had my first harvest already--planted the bulbs the fall and harvested them within a month! One of my more successful gardening experiments.
I'm on to phase two now which is when, if ever, I need to perform any manual intervention to get blooms next year. My understanding is they'll multiple underground and at some point I'm supposed to pull them up and separate them so they don't get crowded.
I know bone meal dug in above the bulbs after they bloom is very good for any bulb plant! Best of luck. I am taking saffron daily for mood and focus!
