What's happening! I am from Chicago where it's still a little more cold right now. I'm looking for more ways to boost the matration process of the onions, cabbage, kale, carrots, beets and rutabagas and want them at their absolute best come harvest time. I have an Irish onion which will be large and a kale which will have large leaves and yellow flowers. Could we do the same thing with mustard, okra, spinach and wheat such as oats which I have right now to gain instant results?

What's happening! Wanna find out if there are some stuff that could be sent to America for some certain crops that can't be found nowhere else. I'm trying to find the Swedish cabbage, onions, kale, rutabaga, beets and few others grown in the 1800s by immigrants in America, but tough sledding. Which places or groups have more rarer Swedish varieties from the 1800s or earlier?

Greetings folks! I'm looking for more Swedish heirloom crops for my gardens to commemorate my community's past and edify everyone. I know about the peas, tomatoes and potatoes, but what about the rest? Somebody please shoot me up some more varieties in this forum so I can see them. Thanks!

What's up! Blake wants to find out how we plant onion seeds since I'm new to planting them straight from seed. Do we begin growing them from our greenhouses or in the ground in April or sometime in the early spring? Also, how do onions mature from seed after we plant them from our greenhouses and gardens? Please reach me if you need me. Out!

Hello folks! Wanna find out how we draw kestrels, owls, hawks and falcons in our backyards and communities to help keep rodents and pesky insects down each year. Some of us have rats in urban parts of our communities and become more disease oriented. I know some evergreen trees do the trick, but are there any others?
How wide and far we need to for birds of prey to shelter and nest for their young? I'd also like my areas suitable for hunting prey. Please reach me if you need me. Adios!

Good morning folks! I like to find out if it's the time to plant potatoes and stuff like greens, carrots and stuff this early spring despite colder conditions and shallow frost. Could greens and carrots germinate in April? What about beets, rutabagas and so fourth? After we plant our potatoes in the ground, should we mulch them? I wanna get a head start on this stuff to get higher results. And is it better to plant onions and stuff from our greenhouses or plant straight into the ground? Please let me know in this box. Have a good day!

Good morning folks! I'd like to find out how we remove slag from our soil and other polluting material. Please let me know if there's anybody out there who knows these things. Take care!

Good morning folks! I'm looking for the rare and historic Spanish Red sweet potato for my gardens this year and anybody grown that one before? I've looked from Sandhill Preservation in Iowa, but don't have none this year and looked everywhere else, but nowhere to be found. If anybody have those please let know and we'll talk more in the Purple Mooseage section. Take care!

Good morning friends! How are you? I'm looking for more help in acquiring some Irish heirloom crops both from the motherland and in the diaspora throughout the world including in America. I'm concentrating on crops from the 1700s and 1800s from settlers and immigrants. Here's a list of varieties I'm looking for.
1. Tipperary Turnip
2. Gortahork cabbage
3. Uncle John kale
4. Winter Roscoff cauliflower
5. Lumper potato
6. Another type of old potato from the 1700s
7. Irish broad beans from the 1700s or 1800s
8. Irish pea beans (red and white beans) from the settlers
9. Irish wheat or rye
10. Irish garlic or onion from the 1700s or 1800s
Those are the varieties I wanna focus on since they're hard to find and few places in the world have those. Please help me obtain some of those historic varieties to help fulfill my goal to restore my grandpa's past and his ancestors in America so the memories can prolong. Please let me know on this site and we'll discuss more in acquiring some of those in my Purple Mooseage page. Have a good day!
