Spent two morning in The Potting Shed at Waihi College last week, potting up 190 manuka and 110 cabbage tree seedlings. The aim is to pot up 1000 seedlings per year, for use on the property over the next five years. As a member of HELP, I have access to the potting shed and facilities, which I am very grateful for. Earlier in the year ( May / June) , I planted native seeds for the first time - Cordyline, Puriri, Tree Lucerne, Totara and Wineberry. Also went kahikatea seed hunting in the covenant area. Despite my best efforts and using the fridge to achieve cold stratification (!!!!), nothing looks like germinating. Have kindly been given cabbage tree and manuka seedlings from HELP....
