Big thanks to @Australis Thank You!

But I keep getting this message. I don't know I look on my account and see the 100 acorns. Maybe I have to wait a bit. Ill try it again.

The cost for this order is 100 acorns.
I'm sorry, but it looks like you don't have enough acorns to cover the cost of this. Please try again once you have more acorns.

Thank you Lynn and will definitely order more if it works!

And thank you also @Dave for this wonderful promo! Now I need to upload more photos and plant info in the NGA database to gain more acorns Whistling

I wish I could add my "uniquely my own" plumeria blooms from my own seedlings into the database and gain more acorns! Hilarious!

@GigiPlumeria - you can actually do this by adding them to the genus level entry: Plumerias (Plumeria)

If you put the hashtag #seedling in the caption as well, then they'll show up if somebody searches for it here (this hashtag hasn't really taken off as much as I would have liked, but now's as good a time as any to start):

Australis,
Can you explain in detail how the "#seedling" works, would that work for daylily seedlings also?

Hi Larry @Seedfork,

Yes, it can be used for any genus. The whole hashtag feature is still in development as far as I know, but the conversation about it is here:

So today was the first chance I have had to try out the new fertilizer, I used the General Purpose Formula and I applied it to all my containers of Basil and Dill seedlings.

Now to wait and see if I notice any difference.

I must say I liked the smell of it. Kinda a mix of rich deep wet earth and low tide at the sea shore. nodding

The containers I used it on don't smell. I could just smell the stuff when I opened the fertilizer to use.

It was the fertilizer container/bottle that my dog was interested in; there was a tiny bit of of the liquid fertilizer that had dripped down the side. Green Grin!

Mine arrived! I got the "sample size." Lovey dubby

I won't be able to test them out until next year. I think I'm going to fertilize with my current fertilizers once more and I'll be done for the year (it's getting too hot here).

So, I won't be any help in that regard, but just to show the lil' baby bottles off. Lovey dubby
