I planted some #seed #potatoes that I purchased from a #family #farm on eBay. These are Yukon Gold potatoes so they are perfect for baking or roasting. I am growing them in potato grow bags on my front yard side patio. It is a new addition to my #organic #gardening #gardeningmastodon

Mal eine Frage in die Runde. Wir wollen in der #Bibliothek #Spandau eine #Saatgutbibliothek aufbauen mit Fokus auf alte Sorten, Wildpflanzen und #opensourceseeds. Gibt es bestimmte Pflanzen die ihr haben wollt und wir besorgen sollen?

@dreschflegelsaatgut @opensourceseeds Würdet ihr uns da unterstützen?

A question for everyone. We want to set up a #seed library in the #library #Spandau with a focus on old varieties, wild plants and opensourceseeds. Are there plants you want us to get?

This past week I gave a presentation on starting native forbs from #seed for my local #WildOnes chapter. The summary from my talk was:

- the seeds are forgiving but only because they have so much innate intelligence that they can respond to (most) mistakes you'll make while learning

- cultivated seeds are bred to be people pleasers. Native seeds have their own agenda. Listen and learn from the seeds and the plants across seasons and years.

- my go-to method for artificial cold stratification is a wet coffee filter covered in seeds, folded, put in a container or baggie, and to alternate between fridge and freezer every 24 hrs for 10-14 days. This is for when you're a month or two from the last freeze date and need to get #plants going. It's an alternative option to sowing in pots outdoors in late fall and geminating naturally in the spring.

- and finally, don't attach yourself to the outcome. Growing natives from seed is a joy because it is challenging and therefore enormously rewarding when you succeed. Enjoy the process. Plant, sell, donate, propagate, and infect your community with the healing joy that is native #wildflowers.

"Gorgeous #eco #documentary to save #seed #diversity. Few things on our planet are as precious and vital as seeds. [..] But this most precious of resources is under threat: more than 90 percent of all seed varieties have already disappeared. Biotech corporations like #Syngenta and #Bayer / #Monsanto have long controlled the global seed market with genetically modified plants. That is why more and more passionate farmers, scientists, lawyers and indigenous seed owners are fighting [..] for the future of variety diversity.
[..] #TaggartSiegel and #JonBetz follow these passionate seed guardians [..]. Without knowing it, they become true heroes for all #humanity as they reconnect us to the original richness of our culture"

Arctic Seed Vault Shows the Flawed Logic of #ClimateAdaptation
Difficulties of #Svalbard #seed repository illustrate why we need to prevent #climate disaster rather than plan for it
The seed vault embeds a conceit common to many adaptation plans: we know what we are facing, so if we plan well, things will go well. Given the state of action (or inaction) on #climatechage, we don’t have to ask whether Arctic warming and permafrost loss will escalate. It is a near certainty.

So today I learned that this is what #NigerSeed looks like before it becomes…. erm…. seeds
Lots of it flowering in the water treatment area near the #SensoryGarden at #WWTCastleEspie.
