  • jodie74

    Jennifer-just a thought.... You could keep taking sign ups & see how long we can keep the bird in flight for! Maybe til 1st day of spring? You couldn't possible put all the DC's in the box but just have to state that they MUST post dc's as they ship.... Might actually be less work for you that way. You would however have to keep updating the flight path as people sign up & email addresses to us instead of being in the box.

    IDK- could be a nightmare but also really fun to see how long it stays in flight!

    You're the hostess-not meaning to step on your toes! Just offering up a fun version of round robin.... Entirely up to you!!! You seem VERY organized so I'm sure you could figure out a way to make it work!! But ENTIRELY your decision! Just a thought I had.....

    THANKS FOR HOSTING! These RR's have been fun to participate in!

    Dcj24 i added u to fat robin. Yes i am going to keep signing people up and see how many players we can get and what i will do is have the robin come back to me a few times that way i can check on the robin but that is only if we have a big list. Also what each player can do is look on each haves and want tradea and email with has and wants and then the seeds can be added in the robin with the players name on them.

    I have a question.. how long are seeds good for? If the box goes around all spring/summer will the seeds from '10 be ok to plant the following spring/wintersowing in '12?

    I'm never sure of a seeds shelf/sowing life. Also, I've heard that many keep daylily seeds in the fridge?

    Deb

  • velsgarden
    13 years ago

    Deb,Ive sown seeds that have been 2 or 3 years old and still got good germination.I keep all my seeds in the fridge.Some seeds need to be sown when they are fresh,but others will keep for a while.Hope this helps.

  • poisondartfrog
    13 years ago

    The seeds should be fine with only a very few exceptions and I won't be using them until 2012 anyway but I am getting a bit concerned that this will become too large to manage.
    If it gets much bigger I may opt out...but that is just me.

    Just thinking about joining but I was wondering if you had any idea how much it would cost to send the package on? The small robin was almost seven dollars. Any idea?

  • Debra Andruska
    13 years ago

    I started thinking about the cost too-- we need to keep it in a flat rate box, or it's going to cost a small fortune to ship. With both boxes combined, we are going to need a flat rate large right now. I know-- I had both the round robins last week. ;)

    I would definately expect large flatrate prices, unless we go to first class (the box now is priority.)

    It's going to be ONE fat little robin! That's going to travel for a very long time!
