I'm going to have to really give it a go with planting my own seeds for my vegetable plants.<br /><br /><br />Holly, they're a slow grower so make sure you start them in plenty of time for them to produce.<br /><br /><br />kitsapFG, seed saving produces some interesting situations that you have to try to overcome. For instance, the Brussels sprouts and broccoli seeds are so light, if you blow the chaff away, a lot of the seeds go with it!<br /><br /><br />Robin, It has been an interesting experience. Ultimately, all you can do is the best you can. Approach it with all the relevant information you can find on seed saving, then just move forward with it.<br /><br /><br />Shawn Ann, it could be that you tried them when they were prepared in a way that didn't appeal to you. Check out the different ways they can be prepared and try one you think you'd like.<br /><br /><br />Heiko, the hot summer does cause problems for them. They don't take heat very well.<br /><br /><br />marisa, Thanks! It was interesting!<br /><br /><br />meemsnyc, Thank you! If you plan to let some go to seed, make sure you plan ahead and locate the plants in an area that will not impede your gardening progress. It takes a long time to make up seeds.<br /><br /><br />Daphne, good luck with your seed collecting! If we (all of us) each get organized enough, we can save a lot of money and time by saving our own seeds.<br /><br /><br />Alexis E., I don't sell my seeds, but I would be happy to share and send you 1/2 a level teaspoonful of the seed. That's a lot of seed! More than you would get in a seed packet. If anyone else would care to have some of these Brussels sprouts seeds, please email me at:<br /> veggiegardenblogger@gmail.com<br />and leave me your complete postal mailing address. I'll gladly send the same amount of Brussels sprout seeds to you as long as the supply holds out. Unfortunately, I don't think I can send them to addresses outside of the USA.<br /><br />Thanks to all of you for stopping by, and let me know if you would like some of the Brussels sprout seeds.<br /><br />Have a great gardening day!<br />Veggie PAKVeggie PAKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13250455377130668508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3712291801064010036.post-15949876307495873962011-05-26T19:21:42.642-04:002011-05-26T19:21:42.642-04:00Do you sell your seeds?
