No monarchs in NW Ohio yet

[Robert61]

No Monarchs flying in my Waystation No. 613 in NW Ohio, about 12 miles south of Lake Erie. The milkweed plants in my waystation aren't even popped through the soil. Robert

I am in NE Ohio and my milkweed is coming up. I have some in the ground and some in pots. The ones in the ground are a couple inches tall. The pots are just start to come up. I dont think we will start to see Monarchs for a while still, maybe late May or so.

I'm in southeast Ohio and milkweed is up several inches. The rain we had over the weekend has really helped. I have lots of milkweed and it increases each year, with new plants coming up a mile away now. There was a lot of seed last year and I'm sure that's what has done it. when I started a few years ago, there was no milkweed on our ridge.
