Community college has this oak growing on the campus, it's leaves aren't very "oak like" but look at the acorns! I'm going to winter stratificate in damp sand.
I had early heat waves this summer that killed my peas but I managed to get 1 ripe pod.
So Wheat, pea, lettuce in moisture proof bags and fridge and acorns in sand that's 4 very different plants.

Got physalis, black walnut, poncirus, black locust, Japanese yam, Kentucky coffee tree in the specified quantities at least. Also included a bag of unprocessed ginkgo seeds and to be processed honey locust, I tore two open to verify they were not an infertile pod producing tree.

I can't send more than a pic at a time (am using a mobile phone) should I spam the thread or send PMS to an admin?

I had trouble uploading photos from my phone for a long time. Then I started using an android application called Photo Compressor. If you can decrease the file size of the photos to a few 100 kilobytes each with a compression/resizing software it makes it easy to upload upwards of 20 photos at one go.

We talked a little bit about doing this from multiple platforms in this thread: https://permies.com/t/121276/art/bulk-resizing-images

If you none of those solutions work for you, maybe we can help you find a solution that will work.

Spamming the thread and sending PMS to an admin would be less than ideal. I think we can find a way forward though.
