Comments (9)Butterfly man, in your zone, wouldn't the milkweed come back on it's own? I'm trying to germinate Asclepias (tuberosa?) for first time this year, and on another thread someone mentioned (in my zone) that they were unsuccessful several times to get that one to germinate (but they are successful with incarnata). I have also read that they are slow to start up in the spring from the ground (in warmer zones - doesn't give me too much hope where I am, even though many seed sites I've visited said it's good to zone 3). Also, I use my old hot glue gun (with no glue stick in it) to melt out holes in my yogurt containers, and a single holed hole punch works good on the pudding containers my kids plow through during the winter. Just an alternative. Glue gun makes perfect ventilation holes in my rubbermaid 'worm bins' also. Thanks....See MoreNevermore44 - 6a
