I'm new to the site and missed out on the propagation posts, my question is: I put down a few leaves and I read that you can use ziploc baggies so I put some seed start in them and then the leaves. Will this work? I have limited space until we move this summer to our new house when it gets finished. would appreciate all input and suggestions [perplexed]
Thank you, Kathi in Texas

Welcome, Kathi! You have not missed out at all, you are most welcome to post on those threads. [grin]

I have heard of people starting leaves in ziplocks, I just have not tried it myself. The main thing to watch out for would be too much moisture, but simply opening the bag and letting it sit for a day will fix this.

We hope to see you back more! [wavey]
