how I start moon flower seeds

I've had trouble starting moon flower seeds in dirt. 

  I've used this method several times and it works out well for me.
I start with 2 larger, thick paper towels, I put the seeds on them.

 I fold in the corners of the paper towels.

 The shape ends up being small enough to fit in a quart size zip-lock bag.

 I add water until the paper towels are moist.

 I put the bags in the laundry room on the washer or dryer.
I check the seeds in a few days and look for germinating seeds.
Once the seeds germinate, I plant them and keep the ground moist.
I love growing these plants.

polar fleece socks for the new rubber boots

I found these rubber boots Sunday and I wanted heavy socks for them
I made the socks with left over polar fleece

I added 2" to the top of the sock top pattern
since I'm planning for these socks to be used in the rubber boots

getting back into it/seed treatment

I miss blogging
so I'm going to get back into it
yesterday I worked on a gardening project
I'm going to try to grow red bud trees from seeds
you have to treat them (soaked in vinegar for 1 hour, rinse them) and then put the in the frig for 3 months
I have them in a container with moist Perlite
on April 27, 2014
I'll take them out of the frig and start planting them
