Love your videos! Lost you for a while with the name change, but so glad I found you again. I’m still trying to get my “growing” right…and have had some huge advances…but I do want to ask…what do you do about the “Bugs” in the flowers?! I gave a bouquet to a friend and delivered it to her office to sit on her desk…she said within an hour “bugs were crawling on her desk!” 😮. Not like a lot but still- how do you “de-bug” your flowers for delivery to customers?
@birdhouseblooms4 ай бұрын
Bugs are the worst surprise lol! That happens to me sometimes, usually caterpillars. I just try to make sure to harvest at the perfect stage before they are too open and prone to getting bugs in them. Jostling them around in the buckets before and after conditioning usually lets me "see" if bugs are hiding in the flowers. If there are a lot, usually I just don't use those flowers, unfortunate as that is.

Look they are small and leggy. What I've found recently is that low temperature is crucial so growing lights indoors are not a good idea because the temperature is too high for them there. The best thing that happened to me this spring that following hot February and March 1 week in April was very cold (0-10°C) and sunny as well. After that the plants got incredibely bulky and sturdy

Absolutely! You should try to sell them if you don’t have the space to up pot them into larger pots and then restart some of your other seeds again to be ready to plant out when you move. Who knows maybe you will make a ton of money and be so surprised! I am sure there are plenty of people who want to start a cut flower garden who don’t have the bandwidth for seed starting.

I totally understand you! I was doing and growing so much in my first years just to realize I needed to narrow down my focuses, and grow things that work for me. Tulip wise, I am growing less and less every year because they are not a good investment for me, I might even cut it down entirely in the next years. I admire you want to stay true to yourself and wanting to find a way that works for you, that’s my learning as well. Just thought to encourage you and only you know if tulips are worthy of your efforts :)

I understand you completely! I'm a flower farmer in denmark and in the region where I'm living, most people just want to buy extremely cheap flowers. Sustainability and organic flowers simply are not interesting to them. It doesn't change my opinion that these things are essential for nature and therefore for me, but depending on the region where you are selling your flowers, it can be pretty hard to sell them. So I decided to sell my flowers in Germany this year, because we are not very far from the border. There is a bigger town with a wonderfull market and also a University, so I hope there are more customers educated on environmental aspects there. At least they maybe like to support local businesses, what is also a problem in my danish home town, because noone is thinking about the special conditions of our market here. On the first sight it seems to be a farmers market, but many of the vendors just sell cheap products from the conventional international wholesale. The customers don't know that and never think about that, because the tradors themselves are from the region and well known. So customers here don't know about the differences between the products and informing them would also mean to somehow bad-mouth my competitors, what I don't want to. So last year I also threw away lots of flowers, with bleeding heart! This year I started selling to a high reputated local florist, I hope we can build up a good business relationship for the future. But: It can be really difficult to find the fitting market for higher valued flowers, it's a hard way at least at the beginning! Good luck!!! 🤗🌻

Following your journey I also rooted my trays in my refrigerator. I put a tray over each one to reduce light for 3 wks and I put a temp and humidity monitor in there as well. Perhaps you’re right about opening the door because I visited my fridge regular to get things and that might have helped. I do think that once you’re settled in your new place you’ll have a better idea on what will work for you. If you have a unheated basement then I would say definitively grow tulips.

Would you consider doing updates every couple of weeks? I am doing something similar and would be interested in your progress. I am also using 10x20 trays as an experiment for hydroponics tulips since those spike crates are hard to come by. I’ve been rooting mine for the last two weeks but I was wondering at what temp are you rooting your bulbs and are you keeping them in the dark for the first 3 wks?
@birdhouseblooms10 ай бұрын
Yes those crates are hard to find and expensive if you need a lot, but probably easier to use. I like my 10 x 20 trays so far! I can’t give any of my process details since I took a paid class to learn everything I know. I highly recommend The Tulip Workshop 🌷🌷
