Thank you for this. I way overseeded several 2x2x2 cells (cuz, first timer - I didn't know what would germinate v not) - and now have a small furry jungle. Does sha-ma-molay handle separation well for transplanting (aka splitting 3 cells into 6, as example) My area just got warm enough to start moving things outside - and I'd like to place these babies in multiple locations.

Speaking of mispronounced plants. My Dad and I were at a garden center and were on different isles looking for a couple of fruit trees. He hollered over at me that the Papa-Ya trees are half off! My brain kinda short circuited as I walked over to see this new variety of fruit tree I'd never heard of. The sign read Papaya. And I laughed and laughed.

I can grow chamomile so easily here in Northern, Northern CA. However, every time I try to harvest and use it, it’s COVERED in tiny tiny bugs. I don’t even know what they are but they make my chamomile basically unusable. Any advice for an organic gardener trying to rid her chamomile of bugs would be so greatly appreciated.

Sowed chamomile 3 years ago.
I've never had to sow it again always at least 30 volunteers every spring and the pollinators adore it. It does seem to attract flies (pollinators as well but more prone to coming in my house ) a lot more than any other flowers that end up iny herb bed.

Using that blueberry harvester at the beggining is so genuis! I dont think I would be using it much though, as the first time i grew it i had gotten like 8 flowers (I dont have blueberry plants either, i accidentally neglected my last one. But this video will certainly help! Thanks!

You can get Hair Saloon spray bottles and they let out a fine mist for a couple bucks online. they work so good for starting seeds its a very fine mist. Also been using the little plastic cups for the Keurig coffee cups for all my seed starting, saved me so much on little trays

I remember an ex-girlfriend left some packets of chamomile tea in a cabinet and I forgot about it, a while later I noticed something odd, it had started to sprout out of the box. Apparently it isn't a difficult thing to grow.

I love these videos on how to use flowers and herbs in the garden! I think the packet of chamomile I had was too old because only one came up. I’m going to get a new one to try this recipe and maybe make a lavender one too.

Aussie gardener and herbalist-in-training here! Chamomile is one of my most favourite plants. It’s incredibly versatile and pretty much grows almost anywhere. I found some growing in between my garden pavers one year. Haha

Mine keeps getting attacked by lots of bugs (the tiny ones that suck the sap out of plants) and I don’t know how to get rid of them to dry the flowers and make stuff with them. Any ideas I don’t want to eat bugs.

I tried to seed start chamomile and it was so sad I live in Riverside CA so I should be able to grow it just fine. I grow so many other wonderful things from seed but can never get that to work.

I have grown chamomile, but in my area beggarticks and fleabane run rampant, and the flowers looks so similar to chamomile that it makes harvesting a nightmare.

As a Mexican, my grandmother used this as a tea for menstrual cramps. I planted some, but then we had a heavy rainfall and haven't seen it sprout since.
