Salt, thanks so much! I just now saw this, or I would have responded sooner! Yep, I am not giving up on the garden. We are getting cucumbers semi-regularly now, and have some cantaloupes set on the vine, and finally some little tomatoes are starting to color up! I hope they will ripen up soon. I feel like I am slowly gaining a little ground-making progress little by little! Hope things are going well for you this year.

Thanks!

Someone has had trouble with the link to the document. I checked it and it is no longer valid. Here is the corrected link for the Wish List Document.

Have Fun!

HudsonValley July 20, 2018 10:37 PM

Ooh. Thanks for feeding our addictions!!! I'll have to cook up a wish-list. I'm planning to send one of the wanted varieties -- Livingston's Honor Bright (a.k.a. Lutescent). I'm growing it from seeds I bought from Victory, and have already bagged and tagged. Just waiting for them to ripen...

Nan, your list is awesome! I'm enjoying my pair of Hardin's Miniature plants from your seeds... The first few ripe fruits were big and bland, but they've improved dramatically.

Nan_PA_6b July 20, 2018 10:51 PM

I'm glad you like them Hudson! There's a lot to like about Hardin's Miniature.

AlittleSalt July 20, 2018 11:19 PM

I'm going to start getting seeds ready to send to Tormato soon.

There may be a thread that I have missed that already explains this? I need to know if it's alright to send in three bags of variety A, 10 bags of variety B, etc. I have a lot of seeds that need to be shared with others who have space to grow them. Many of those varieties - I only have 10-15 seeds for.

Nan_PA_6b July 21, 2018 01:33 AM

Short answer, yes, you can send in as many or few packets of each as you wish. Around 10 seeds per packet.
