We watered and fertilized 1,600 native grasses the week before they are due to be planted in the Laguna Coast Wilderness Nix Nature Center. Next year’s container plants are in either seed flats or containers. Each seed flat and post is has been inoculated with mycorrhizae.

Seed Flats & Oaks
Tom, David, Sarah and Nanci helped plan, prep, label and prepare seed flats for this year: 15 species in seed flats and 2 species of oaks. We topped the flats with vermiculite to deter fungal gnats. Each species was paired in the flat with a dissimilar plant.
The group also de-bugged oak acorns being stratified and “bumped up” the ones with tap roots into 4” tall square pots.
