Have you tried Etsy?(did I spell that right? Lol)

Not recently. I’ll get back into it one of these days.

You rock Cappy!

Thanks, looking forward to fresh strawberries. I have not grown strawberries since we lived in TN.

Neato, I have 6 strawberry plants that I'm planning on removing suckers from to make a nice patch.

I took Comfrey root cuttings that we've sprouted and put them in starter pots today. I'm hoping to use it as mulch and supplemental chicken feed.

I heard someone tried that but the chickens wouldn't eat it. It is high in protein, right?

23-26% yes. I've always heard that chickens love it.

Loving all the garden talk! You people are an inspiration!

Probably depends on the chickens. I was thinking of trying to get some for my rabbits.

I got mine from here. http://bit.ly/MarshCreekFarm

You can get a LOT of cuttings for not a lot of money. I also bought 3 root crowns which are growing a lot faster than the cuttings.

Apparently the site is down for maintenance at the moment.

No rush, i have a ton of stuff to plant. I put in another tomato plant today and stuck a zinnia i grew from seed in the hole of one of the concrete blocks i used to make a raised bed.

I've heard once you plant them, they are hard to get rid of (which I don't particularly mind if the birds like it). I read a review about how this lady purposefully got the sterile kind so it didn't propagate. After a year or so, she had them growing all over her yard and couldn't figure out why. She had moles. The moles were taking root cuttings and transplanting them all over the place.
