A few years ago when i was propagating dahlias I went on the national dahlia uk page - some serious growers on there. Propagating hundreds of plants just to show several blooms. Some of the old guys have so much knowledge.
I had trouble with rotting stems - one facetimed me so he could look at my compost mix I couldnt believe how helpful they were. I didnt even intend to show - just for cutting - but I learnt so much.
They even set up big groups and did dahlia talks where we could join and ask questions on propagating and varieties...on teams or something. Forgot how I got in...but actually speaking to them can be so mych easier
