🤙🏻 thanks homie

Very cool to hear! Farming teaches you something new every year, learning and trying new things will be a constant. Mistakes and unforeseen accidents will happen every year regardless of how prepared you try to be. Tulips are a popular crop for us too. Grow as much as possible for Mother’s Day, you will sell it all. We have also had success with freesias, ranunculus, anemone and iris for Mother’s Day. We grow statice as well, it’s productive, long lasting, and you can dry any extras and use it for dried bouquets or wreaths. We also do that with fever few and strawflower that we don’t sell. Canterbury bells last for weeks, we have had success with those too. Peonies are always popular, and you can store them in a cold room for up to a month. Our plants are 2 years old and in the process of bulking up too. I’ve found it’s worth it to start seeds the germinate easily, like statice, strawflower, scabiosa, fever few. Some seeds need light to germinate and some don’t. I use heat mats with thermometers to control the soil temperatures and plastic domes to keep the humidity high. Things that are difficult for you like snapdragons, I would order from a plug supplier or broker like Ball Horticulture. We have a full time crew of 6 people at the moment, and Neve Farms comes from our family name, we have been in the flower business for 4 generations now.

We only supply locally, growing on about 5 acres at the moment. I have had thoughts to sell surplus plants/bulbs via Nostr though. Dahlias have been a good crop for us, they don’t ship easily so it gives local growers an advantage. Weather wise we have had the same experience this year, everything has been delayed a few weeks. Our summers in NorCal are typically in the 80’s, we have barely had any 80+ days thus far. Are you focused on dahlias or do you grow other things as well? From our experience, higher price items and specialty crops that imports can’t compete with are key to staying in business. We stopped growing roses two years ago because we can’t compete with South American prices.

Bitcoin over 1 million in 2028, hell of a call 👀

Thanks 🙏🏻

Summer of 2021. We applied for a BlockFi business account and thankfully got our bitcoin off of the platform before the chaos

Flower of the day is Japanese Anemone or the windflower. Dainty and airy, it’s an eye catcher in bouquets and in the garden #flowers #flowstr #nostr #bitcoin #fixthemoneyfixtheworld

Staying humble and stacking sats. There is no other way
