Just to prove that I'm not the only random seeded advent calendarist.
Stephen Barstow added 6 new photos to the album Stradvent Calendar 21.
The 2021 Stradvent Calendar for Permaculturists!
Sowing one packet of seed for stratification (cold treatment) each day until the festive season! All are random perennials that I was planning to sow in December, definitely not my favourite perennial vegetables. When each seed tray is full it will be put out under the snow (currently -10C)
Click on the pictures for more information.
Day 1: Crambe maritima (sea kale / strandkål): I use recycled milk cartons for sowing seed for stratifying ( I don't bother taking the shell off the seed like some folks do). Resulting plants will mainly be for giving away to members of KVANN (Norwegian Seed Savers). The seed are from a mix of plants in my garden including the cultivar Lily White.
Read more about growing sea kale in my book Around the World in 80 plants; signed copies available from me for Xmas.
