06/14/05 20:21:48 Tony___IL: getting leaves to Sweden safely
06/14/05 20:21:50 Jana_in_Indiana: I remember Cheryl talking about that, when doing the experiments
06/14/05 20:22:15 Charlene_in_OK: I was going to ask about sugar water.  I saw a site last night that showed that and the babies came much faster in sugar water.
06/14/05 20:22:15 Jana_in_Indiana: I doubt everyone here will be sending leaves to Sweden!
06/14/05 20:22:18 Tony___IL: maybe I'll try 2 of each, one with and without HiFresh
06/14/05 20:22:28 Clare_KS: I want to hear about soaking in bleach water. I thought chlorine was death to plants.
06/14/05 20:22:37 Tony___IL: send the leaves to me instead. LOL
06/14/05 20:22:39 Diana: do you start them in the water or root them
06/14/05 20:22:48 sherry__(Mo): Just use 10 percent bleach in your water
06/14/05 20:22:54 Jana_in_Indiana: if using sugar water, rinse well beofre planting, the sugar feeds mold, mildew & rot micro-organisms
06/14/05 20:23:12 Diana: my mother forogt her violets in the sink when she did a load of whites with bleach .. and hers look wonderful ..
06/14/05 20:23:18 Diana: didn't think they would make it
06/14/05 20:23:18 Clare_KS: Do you rinse off the bleach water before planting?
06/14/05 20:23:35 Tony___IL: also planted a lot of leaves using the HiFresh vs. sulfur
06/14/05 20:23:42 Jana_in_Indiana: I soak all leaves I get in the mail in 10% bleach water for 3 minutes, even for tissue culture we use the bleach soak
06/14/05 20:23:49 Charlene_in_OK: What is hi fresh?
06/14/05 20:23:50 sherry__(Mo): I've used bleach before, but not since I got Physan 20
06/14/05 20:24:24 Jana_in_Indiana: always riinse leaves in plain water after soaking in anything
06/14/05 20:24:33 Tony___IL: HiFresh is something Millie got from Kiki in Japan. Not sure what is really is. HELP Jana
06/14/05 20:24:58 Jana_in_Indiana: Hi Fresh is silic acid, a pond water purifier with anti fungal properties
06/14/05 20:24:58 Chris_In_Colorado: the man at Violet Showcase sold me what he starts leaves in, I'm giving it a try
06/14/05 20:25:07 Jana_in_Indiana: what is it?
06/14/05 20:26:04 Jana_in_Indiana: silic acid is in many hydroponic products sold in the US, but you can't get it pure here, only mixed with other junk
06/14/05 20:26:16 Chris_In_Colorado: sorry had to run upstairs and get it
06/14/05 20:26:34 Tony___IL: what did the guy suggest, Chris?
06/14/05 20:26:41 Charlene_in_OK: Okay when you get leaves you soak in 10% bleach water, than rinse them, then cut at angle and let dry out for 15 minutes to callous than stick in potting mix, is that right?
06/14/05 20:27:01 Chris_In_Colorado: Seaweed extrct and Superthrive which i already had
06/14/05 20:27:17 Clare_KS: where do you get seaweed extract?
06/14/05 20:27:40 Jana_in_Indiana: anyone know where to get kelp powder?  Cheap?
06/14/05 20:27:40 Diana: I didn't even rinse my new leaves .. I just planted them .. should I have rinsed them?
06/14/05 20:27:43 Chris_In_Colorado: he soaks the leaves in this mixture fo 24 hrs, recuts and plants and uses the same stuff to wet the soil if needed
06/14/05 20:28:16 Jana_in_Indiana: seaweed extract is a weak fertilizer, as is the kelp powder
06/14/05 20:28:17 Chris_In_Colorado: edit the plants to leaves.. recuts the stems of the leaves
06/14/05 20:28:31 Charlene_in_OK: Chris this was from the person at Violet SHowcase right?
06/14/05 20:28:32 Tony___IL: well make sure to let us know if it help out Chris
06/14/05 20:28:41 Chris_In_Colorado: he also sprays the leaves with this in a sprayer
06/14/05 20:28:48 sherry__(Mo): I don't soak that long! Unless ir's something I've gotten in the mail and it takes it that long to firm up
06/14/05 20:29:01 Jana_in_Indiana: same for me Sherry!
06/14/05 20:29:09 sherry__(Mo): Jana and Tony, how long do you soak your leaves?
06/14/05 20:29:17 Chris_In_Colorado: he said if you were in a big hurry, to use Dyna-Gro K-L-N concentrate for rooting
06/14/05 20:29:47 Jana_in_Indiana: if limp, until they firm up, if firm to begin with, only the 3 minutes in bleach water & then rinse in plain water
06/14/05 20:29:49 Tony___IL: in bleach 0, in sugar water 15-60. Depends on how bad the look
06/14/05 20:29:49 Clare_KS: where do you get seaweed extract?
06/14/05 20:30:00 Jana_in_Indiana: if they are my own leaves I cut, don't soak at all
06/14/05 20:30:04 Chris_In_Colorado: I got it from him
06/14/05 20:30:27 Jana_in_Indiana: I've seen seaweed extract in the hydroponics internet stores

06/14/05 20:32:53 Diana: so if I get leaves in the mail they shoud be soaked in bleach/water to make sure there are no bugs .. and if they are limp .. sugar water?
06/14/05 20:33:43 Diana: I'm wondering if I will ever get this right :?
06/14/05 20:33:44 Clare_KS: Have to go take care of the dogs...ttytomorrow

06/14/05 20:34:54 Charlene_in_OK: Jana will it hurt if I didn't rinse the leaves after the soak in bleach water?

06/14/05 20:45:45 Diana: it's just a mix I came up with through the years .. seemed to work for me
06/14/05 20:46:06 Jana_in_Indiana: dang, had to check my yorkie had a piece of carrot stuck in her teeth, missed Charlene leaving!
06/14/05 20:46:27 Diana: oh no ..
06/14/05 20:46:29 Tony___IL: thinking you could just put some of the mix in a pot and wet it as usual and see if you like the results
06/14/05 20:46:43 Tony___IL: no plant
06/14/05 20:46:58 Diana: I could .. maybe buy a noid to practice with
06/14/05 20:47:17 Diana: I just gave away ALL of mine rotfl
06/14/05 20:47:17 Tony___IL: could do that also
06/14/05 20:47:45 Diana: figured I needed the room for named plants .. but kept 2 leaves off of each one
06/14/05 20:48:14 Diana: it hurt to part with some of them .. they were kind of pretty
06/14/05 20:48:28 Jana_in_Indiana: I checked my convention leaves Saturday, they have babies coming up everywhere!
06/14/05 20:48:45 Diana: wonderful  :)
06/14/05 20:49:00 Jana_in_Indiana: Tony, do you have any babies on the leaves I sent you?  cheryl said she does
06/14/05 20:49:04 sherry__(Mo): When you get babies from the leaves, maybe you can use different mixtures and see which one works best
06/14/05 20:49:15 Diana: everytime I think I see a baby on mine .. it turns out to be a bit of algae
06/14/05 20:49:20 Jana_in_Indiana: Cheryl in TX
06/14/05 20:49:21 sherry__(Mo): I've slowly lost most of mine Jana
06/14/05 20:49:31 Jana_in_Indiana: oh no!  I wonder why?
06/14/05 20:49:34 sherry__(Mo): boo hoo
06/14/05 20:49:55 Tony___IL: not yet. How long has it been, J
06/14/05 20:50:12 Jana_in_Indiana: heck if I remember!
06/14/05 20:50:21 sherry__(Mo): They slowly rotted, I'd operate, and they'd start rotting again-
06/14/05 20:50:36 Jana_in_Indiana: oh no
06/14/05 20:50:48 Jana_in_Indiana: when these babies are big enough, I'll send you some
06/14/05 20:50:58 Jana_in_Indiana: I'm going to do a game on VVV
06/14/05 20:51:07 sherry__(Mo): Thanks Jana
06/14/05 20:51:18 sherry__(Mo): what kind of game?
06/14/05 20:51:34 Jana_in_Indiana: post a photo of all these huge babies all scrunched together, whoever correctly gusses how many there really are will get one of each
06/14/05 20:51:57 sherry__(Mo): I bet everyone plays!
06/14/05 20:52:02 Jana_in_Indiana: they can't cheat on this game, I don't even know the answer yet!  LOL
06/14/05 20:52:17 Diana: rotfl  .. I'll guess but I don't think you can send them to Canada  *)
06/14/05 20:52:44 Tony___IL: wondering if the babies will be as big as the Momma leaves. They were huge. LOL
06/14/05 20:52:57 Jana_in_Indiana: sure I can!  Just let them grow bigger & cut them off at the soil line, then you root as you would a sucker
06/14/05 20:53:17 sherry__(Mo): I bet they will Tony. Buckeyes are huge!
06/14/05 20:53:23 Jana_in_Indiana: these babies aren't from those leaves, these are from leaves I put down in Feb.
06/14/05 20:53:40 Diana: I have a huge leaf .. but I've never found a picture of the plant .. it's Guelph Dynamite
06/14/05 20:54:01 Tony___IL: I like your other idea of rooting in perlite or vermic and sending them to Canada. No SOIL
06/14/05 20:54:27 Diana: hmmm .. it's only soil that can't come over the border isn't it
06/14/05 20:54:30 Jana_in_Indiana: tell me your e-mail , I'll send you a photo Diana
06/14/05 20:54:43 Tony___IL: where did you get it Diana

06/14/05 20:58:05 Jana_in_Indiana: I sent out some that were monsters, even the petioles were so huge had to cut off half to get into baggie
06/14/05 20:58:21 sherry__(Mo): They were giants Jana!LOL
06/14/05 20:58:38 Diana: wow .. big
06/14/05 20:58:48 Tony___IL: I can believe that J. The Buckeyes were larger than anything I've ever seen
06/14/05 20:59:09 Diana: next to the little Wrangler leaves it looks like the green giant .. hehehehe
06/14/05 20:59:10 Jana_in_Indiana: I can't imagine what happened to your Sherry, even Peggy's are OK, & she left them in the box for about a week beofre trying to plant them
06/14/05 20:59:12 sherry__(Mo): I do have a brush that I brush mine with....when I think of it. Do you wash yours Tony?

06/14/05 21:01:30 Tony___IL: some of them have been here for a couple years
06/14/05 21:02:20 Jana_in_Indiana: maybe they had set in a hot mail truck Sherry?
06/14/05 21:02:50 Tony___IL: J, how old was the plant you son was holding in the photo?
06/14/05 21:03:03 sherry__(Mo): I wondered about that Jana. They looked good, though
