Magnolia Seeds (Mickleover DE3) Expired 167d - Our Magnolia tree has produced a lot of seeds again. I have split them into 5 packs if anyone is interested in trying to grow them. I can supply instructions as they do require a specific process for germination to be successful, as the seeds have to be stratified. It will be a long term project, as the trees are quite slow growing initially, and even if germination is successful, they have to be nurtured through several seasons. I have successfully grown a number, over 3 years, all of which I have now given away, as I do not have room in my garden.

LED Standard Light (Mickleover DE3) Gifted 243d - This is an LED Standard Light. It takes 6 AA cells, or can run from a 9v DC power unit.

Left over Pallet wood (Mickleover DE3) Gifted 1y - A while ago I acquired 3 Pallet Crates on here. I have now constructed the Items I wanted them for using most of the longer pieces of wood.

Mod note - please remember that treated or pre-treated wood may give off dangerous gases when burnt, so this is unlikely to be suitable for burning.

Corner Summer House (Mickleover DE3) Gifted 1y - Corner Summer house in need of TLC. Ten Years old but in last few years only used as storage shed. There is a bit of wood rot in the timber at the door frame which will need a replacement piece of timber. Will need dismantling, and a large van or truck to transport. Floor was fitted with loose lay carpet tiles, but rain against the door tended to get under them so a few have been moved. Photo of rotted timber shows part of floor with carpet tiles lifted. Still have original assembly instructions. I am willing to assist with dismantling. Needs to go soon.

Box of Electronics salvage (Mickleover DE3) Gifted 1y - Calling all Electronics hobbyists, experimenters etc. I have a box of electronics salvage to offer. Previously I have collected things like this, but am now trying to clear out a lot of stuff, as it is several years since I did much by way of building electronics projects, and don't want someone else to have to clear it all when I pass on. If there are people who can make use of some of this, I would prefer it to be used rather than just added to the pile of electronics scrap at the tip.

Magnolia berries/seeds (Mickleover DE3) Gifted 1y - Calling gardeners and green fingererd people. Our Magnolia has produced a lot of berries/seeds this year. If anyone wants to try growing them, I have a set of intructions. I have successfully germinated and grown some in the past. I still have a number of 3 year old trees in pots.The original tree is Magnolia Sayanora, which according to the books does not produce seeds! The progeny will not necessarily grow to be the same. So if there are any adventurous gardeners wanting a long term project, please come and take some.
