| Good suggestion with the sea holly, Andi.. I think I have an extra pot still from WS-ing that I could slide Mom's way, and I can WS my last pinch of seeds also. My apologies, I have not yet been able to make the time to catch up and send C-mails for all of my recent oinks... I will try to catch up over the weekend. I think most people were posting "gotcha covered" responses as we went along, but I know some of you are using a C-mail folder as a backup for your main list etc. Circles of Support for Breast Cancer I'm learning to dance in the rain! Thank you, Sally & Chris & Sharon. |

Gardengus, how big are the vines on your mini pumpkins? Are the plants smaller or just the pumpkins?

Wildflower, wish you could smell the house tonight.. I de-chaffed "Hot & Spicy" basil, 'Lime' basil, and Thai basil 'Siam Queen' this afternoon, and the scents just linger! I have seed stalks of my favorite Italian basil in a vase, and it does look like we'll get some ripe seeds from them.  Circles of Support for Breast Cancer I'm learning to dance in the rain!

| IMPORTANT MESSAGE!!!!!!!!! Folks watch your counts. I know it very easy to get carried away. Big eyes and all that.  But you should be keeping track yourself somehow, someway of what you have coming in. You only had up to 150 oinks at this stage of the game. One or two couple over is not a problem, but if you way over, then go back and cut your list back to get inline with that number, please. Just take the ones you have to cut back on and add then to your wishlist. If your wish list has 60 things on it fine. There no limit to what you can put on your wish list. It ok to be hogs here, but we have to be fair hogs. We still have folks joining that will be looking for stuff and some who will be coming in late and I have one very .. very shy piggy who is new to gardening pretty much and not even a squeeler, they a little pip squeek  that I have to try and pick and choose stuff for that they might be able to grow. So be abpiggy, but be considerate of your fellow piggies too. |
|
|||
| I totally empathize with the big eyes. I joined thinking that I would only request about 20, 50 max......but here I am at 135. How in the world did that happen???? I still have a LOT of the white echinacea seeds if anyone wants them. They were gathered in 2009, but I am pretty sure they should still be good. Anyone know for sure? |
|
|||
| WE have 2 new piggies in the house. Anita and Evelnyinthegarden. Welcome Anita and Evelyn. Soils Ye s they are still good and will you put one aside for me and put Shy on it. That is a species type so will grow good in their are a and bring butterflies and hummers to the yard too. |
|
|||
| Andi... Your not going anywhere . In all the years, we have always had a good time, lets keep it that way. If any of you have a problem, or questions or whatever, then cmail me about them and I will handle it. Now everybody play good or I will get the bathtub back out again, although that fun time for some folks. |
|
|||
| Ok, let me clear something up for anybody else who may not understand. We are in part one of this swap. Right now only thing folks should be doing is listing their seeds to share, taking oinks and making oinks. Every person has 150 oinks they can use anywhich way they want. We are not at Part 2. Part 2 and this may be where a misunderstanding is coming is those folks that want to participate in Part 2. Part 2 is what I do. From whatever you send in extra up to 100 packets is put into a general pool, piggy trough. From out the general collective pool. I pick what ya get back 1 for 1. Part 2 is not part of the regular oinking system. That why I have your wishlists and the tell me about your garden, and don't wants, part as that is where I start picking out seeds for folks in Part 2 I go by what you have typed there and try and match you up the best as I can with whatever comes in to the collective pool of part 2. With part 2 it whatever in the pot. Sometimes ya get all good stuff, sometimes ya get good and some ya don't like, which your free to trade away or give away, later. So, if that is what your doing and didn't realize it, please, don't be tryign to do any Part 2's. That go insane, and have fun part time and I like having my fun time.  Remind me I just said that when I have thousands of packets of seed from the general trough all over the place to sort out and sharing the pic s with ya. |
