Fermented and almost dry enough to bag: Green Mustang, Livingston's Globe (parent to Marglobe and offspring like Rutgers), Wapsipinicon Peach, Hasting's Mildglobe, and another variety I've forgotten already... Might be Break O'Day.

Hi, Lexx,


I'd be happy to sponsor you!


I've already filled about 200 baggies, so I could probably sponsor someone else, too. I'm not done yet...

My pleasure! Which part of NY do you call home? (I'm in the mid-Hudson Valley, but grew up on Long Island and lived in Manhattan for 15 or so years.)


264 baggies and counting...

Baggy filling in progress on this rainy day (week actually) :


Dester (few)
Soldacki (few)

Dikaya Roza (Pictured)
Black Beauty (Pictured)


Huge Yellow Sweet Pepper (must have been from a saved grocery pepper?) (Pictured) (Unbagged)

The largest marconi pepper I have ever grown (filled an 8 inch plate, from a saved farmers market pepper) and another good sized Marconi pepper unknown variety (Unbagged)


Hatch Pepper (a few red marked med-hot saved from grocery)


Malabar Spinach





Fireball and Blonde Sensation Marigold F2's
Lowes Dwarf French Marigold Mix (likely hybrids from a premium multipack, mostly multi-colored, very beautiful, manageable size for a pot, and well worth the TLC on the sale rack)
(Pictured in containers)

I can sponsor someone else, too, if needed. Should I put up a list of categories I have seeds for?

Hi Hudson Valley. Thanks again for the sponsorship. Since I am sort of a new member here at t ville I might need some help from you and others to figure this all out. Yes I read thru the rules but I am still a little confused. Mike

A bubble mailer (6 x 9 is the most commonly used by nonhoarders), with return postage, a legible mailing address, and a wish list inside, for starters. Which reminds me to either attempt to go to the nightmare of the USPS website and find the rates, or have one of you participants do it for me.

What is this tomato seed hoarding thing? I have never heard of a such thing...

There's more in the envelopes they were to sent in which has taken over a drawer of their own.

Hoarder? Hoarder?!! I just like to see the USPS get their exercise by lifting those seed boxes!!!! And it is just a shame, a down right shame, to waste space by not filling up the priority box with seeds!!!


Besides, sharks and Tiggers simply cannot be hoarders. <trying to look most angelic>

I do yearly "fall cleaning" by sending in to the MMMM.

Red Monarda (bergamot) seeds won't be sent due to crop failure, but big white hibiscus seeds are coming. As I said before, no Targinnie Red but all the others in post #18 are on schedule.
