Have OP Tender Perennials Fruits & Vegetables Peppers Sow Indoors Under Lights Sown 2023 |
DND's All Seeds Swap #9 (2022) - wildflowers - From my 2021 garden. Very mild heat. A chinense from Brazil. Ripens to red. From the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais. With the Little-Beak pepper (pimenta biquinho in Portuguese) you can still get the flavor your want - it's just the spiciness that will be missing from whatever you're preparing. Biquinho peppers are small, round and have a small beak-shaped protuberance hanging from the end. The plant makes a beautiful ornamental plant. 100-2500 SHU Days to First Harvest and Maturity: 55 lime green, 75 red ripe. |

Florist's Cyclamen (Cyclamen persicum) |
Have Collected or purchased 2021 Tender Perennials Flowers Houseplants Needs Dark Sown 2023 |
Mix - N.S. UK 2021 Soak the seeds in water for 24 hours. Plant them into well-draining soil, lightly covering them. Keep the seeds in a cool, dark place. Place the pots in a shallow tray of water to moisten the soil. Remove after the soil is moist, then repeat once it begins to dry. Germination may take several months. Once seedlings appear, move them to an area with bright, indirect lighting or place them under grow lights. Once they are a few inches tall, thin them out. Replant the seedlings into individual pots when each tuber has sprouted at least a few leaves. Sown indoors. No light. Zones 10 and 11. |

Elephant's Foot (Dioscorea elephantipes) |
Have Plant Seeds Collected or purchased 2021 Tender Perennials Houseplants Succulents Full Sun Sow Indoors Under Lights Sown 2023 |
Purchased seeds 2021 The elephant's foot seed starts growing with the swelling of the hypocotyl. By the end of the first year, the caudex has grown to approximately 10 mm. (1 cm.) After five years the caudex should have reached a size of 120 mm. (about 5 inches) in diameter. During the first 3-4 weeks water regularly, probably 2x/week. You don't want the seedlings getting stressed as they are throwing out their first set of roots and leaves–again, if the seedlings dry out too much in this first period you'll risk killing the plant. Dioscorea elephantipes goes through a period of dormancy for a few months each year. You'll know your plant has gone dormant when the vine dries up and the leaves turn yellow and drop off. When your plant is dormant reduce watering significantly and keep your plant somewhere cool and dry. |
