Buckeye Roll Call 2011

15 years ago

Who are you? Where are you? What are you growing?

I'm Karen from Columbus. I will mostly be spring sowing until I determine what the weather and rock salt did to my beds. Should be interesting.

    I am DeAnne from Lewis Center. I don't come here too much anymore, my beds are full and I have learned so much here that I don't need to! But I do lurk and see what's going on, especially this time of year. I wintersow poppies and springsow zinnias and other annuals.

    Hi! I'm Jodie from Mentor. I am growing a little bit of everything!! I am new to gardening but I just love it & I got bit by the winter sowing bug HARD!!! And seed trading bug!! :-)

    My original goal was to ws 300 then 500 containers. I ws'd my 300th container today & I am not yet done with JUST perennials! I have annuals & herbs & veggies yet to sow! Not sure how many I'll end up with but who cares.... I'm having a BLAST!!!!

    I am Carolyn from good ole Tennessee, a small farming community of Union City, population: don't blink when driving through, you may miss us, lol!! Just teasing we actually have a few lights, just not much of anything else especially if goodyear leaves, ugh!!

    I am sowing a lot of natives and a lot of purples and blues and I plan to try to start on my edible collection. My favorite color is blue and my favorite flower is a daisy!!

    I'm Margie from Hilliard. I've sown perennials so far but will add annuals and will WS tomatoes and peppers for the first time closer to spring. I don't post much but love this forum and appreciate all the helpful members.

    I'm another Karen from Cincinnati, Ohio. This is my 6th year wintersowing.

    My beds were pretty full last year. But with the awful heat and drought of last summer and fall, I expect to lose some things this year. I'm sowing stuff to replace what might be lost. If everything comes back... another story.

    Good to see you back, bakemom.

    Hi, I'm Jennifer from Barrie, Ontario, Canada. I know there's a Canadian WS forum, but it seems rather slow compared to this one!

    I'm brand new to WSing (just found out about it last week!) and pretty much brand new to gardening in general! I'm sowing whatever seeds I can get my hands on right now, annuals, perennials and vegetables. Just one huge experiment, the more I try the more I learn.

    Just wanted to say this forum is amazing, I've felt so welcomed! Everyone seems willing to help the newbies, whether encouragement, advice, donated seeds.... handholding seems to radiate from people here! Thanks!

    And another Karen here, from Fremont.

    But I refuse to call myself a Buckeye, I'm a Michigan gal, through and through. I just live here.

    I'm Suzanne from Ft. Jennings Ohio and this is my third year of wintersowing. I now use mostly gallon jugs and large containers because my first year I had alot of failures with TP rolls, newspaper pots and small containers. My husband and I also like to fish so spring, summer and fall we live at our camper in Michigan. Go Bucks!

    Forgot to mention I like to wintersow perennials any and all I can find hardy in our zone.
