I keep running inside to add more, then a run to HD for more drip line hoses (yahoo, I love my talented hubby, I have a long honey-do list for him!), then outside to plant, water, help with drip line, inside for a drink of water and add more plants to list, back outside for more planting. On fun overload! And I have tons of photos to edit and add after doing a trip to a local rhodie nursery and tour through Zuzu's garden again yesterday!

Oh, let me tell you, this beats the heck out of the crummy Excel spreadsheet I've been using for my lists! Hilarious! Thumbs up

I got everything in my list. Now to organize & create categories.
Guess those new images I took today are going to have to wait a bit to go into the db. Tomorrow is another day.

Nope, it's up and running with almost 20,000 plants currently being listed by almost a hundred members. I'd say the plant list is in prime time.

I was surprised not to get any requests for seeds yet.

I wonder if my reputation for being slow has preceeded me?

I think everyone is too busy getting their own lists together to have much time to look to see what anyone else has on offer!

!!

That might be the problem!

I also suspect that many gardeners who trade seeds might have a similar experience to me. A few years of hyper-frantic trading and acquisition ... followed by realizing that I have zero bed space left, and enough variety of seeds to last me for approximately 100,000,000 years.

I'm not yet competing with the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, but now that I have more interesting seeds than I can plant in 5 years, I really, really don't need more seeds!

I also think that you may have to promote your trade list and that you are actively looking for trading opportunities.

Ahhh. I think of that as "pimping my seeds".

I'd have to gather up my energy and find some spare time before promising rapid turn-around.
