Having been unable to plant ANYTHING this past year, I was unable to grow out any new seeds. Rather than throw away ALL of my seeds indiscriminately, I did some germination tests. As I suspected, many of my seeds were too old to germinate, and I am left with some gaps in my supply. However, many others actually DID germinate, and I kept anything with a 70% or higher germination rate. I even had enough of some seeds that I can trade, if anyone wants anything I have. I will list what I have first, then what I am in need of. I can also send handmade cards (Christmas, Birthday, Get Well, etc.) or handmade Christmas ornaments. HAVES: -Cosmos: Lavender; White and Pink; Bright Lights -Pepper: Jalapeno -Tomato: Hamson (DX-52-12; Roma VF; Oregon Star; Beefsteak; Principe Borghese (Italian grape variety) -Cantaloupe(unknown variety, but OP) -Winter Squash: Sweet Dumpling -Cucumber: Marketmore 76 -Lettuce: Buttercrunch; Unknown variety, but was tasty this past growing season -Basil -Dill -Wheat: Hard Red Winter -Amaranth -Sesame NEEDS/WANTS: *Artichoke *Endive *Dale Sorghum *Hulless Oats *Cereal Rye *Russian Comfrey *Oilseed Radishes *Strawberry Spinach *Any Herbs except Basil and Dill I am also looking for some edible/medicinal herbs and "weeds"; I don't have anyone to help me correctly ID the weeds so I figure I should get them from someone who KNOWS what they are ;-) *chickweed *lamb's quarters *purslane *wooly pod vetch *amole *ashwaganda *feverfew *marshmallow *mullein *chinese plantain
Well, I can go out and gather some lambs quarter for you if you are interested. let me know. I am pretty sure there is still some out in the garden that was let go and went to seed.
