After a successful harvest of cornflowers, I have decided to give away the seeds that I have collected to anyone on hive that whats them. (First come first served)
All it will cost is postage to you.
I have loads of seeds to give away and it would be a shame to waste them, I came up with an idea that I could give them away here on hive.
I will send them in a little jiffy bag in an envelope to reduce the cost of postage.
If you are wanting some cornflower seeds then hit me up in discord and we will sort out your address and price for posting them to you.
Postage to you in the UK £1.00
Postage international is £1.50
These prices will cover the envelope and stamp to get them to you.
I do believe there are a few countries that I can't post to, but if you hit me up I will look into it for you and I'll see what I can do.
These plants are great for butterflies and bees, we have had so many come and visit our garden this year that I will be growing them again next year.
To grow these flowers is really easy, wait until about 6 weeks before your last frost, place in a propagator, and give them a little cover of dirt, wait. they grow so well.
They grow to about 2 to 3 feet tall and the spread is pretty good as well, they have been flowering for weeks and weeks now.
I wish I had a field to grow them in as they would look so beautiful.
So why not get some while I have them, and with them being free it saves you from buying them from the shops.
While I have your attention,
My allotment is coming on nicely and I was thinking about adding some pretty cool stuff to is, I am wanting to use my HBD to fund the allotment.
So here goes,
I am wanting solar power, I have seen a system that will power grow lights and heat my shed, this giving me more growing time when winter comes.
I am also wanting to add a drip-feed system to the plot but this has to be done be when all my crops are finished as it will need to be laid underground to stop it freezing in winter.
I am wanting to put netting around my hoop house to house caterpillars until they turn into butterflies, this is my main reason for having this plot.
Steem funded many improvements around the house. It takes a while but you get there
I was looking at postage for South Africa and it is £5.05p that is way more expensive than other countries.
Don't know why do you?
Hope your wellI need to fund it somehow @mesembs It Just been costing me a fortune up to now.
Probably because our postal system is pretty awful. Right now, it's completely non-functional due to covid. Everytime an employee tests positive, they shut entire mail hubs down
My long-term plan is to grow rare, expensive succulents to sell
Our postal service was running but it wasn't brilliant, Succulents are pretty cool there not that expensive over here, pick them up for a few quid.
