Best seeds and best gardening youtube channel, especially if you live in Mid West.
These germinated great and were all off to a good start, but they ended up getting potted up into too heavy of dirt and became stressed and got killed off by spider mites shortly after. Will be trying to grow again but will be taking better care of them while young.
Asclepias (Milkweeds) are very important to me, and especially this species! I often get my milkweed seeds from different companies, for a few reasons, but I noticed that my Swamp Milkweed seeds from a different well-known company were significantly smaller, and overall pretty scraggly-looking, compare those to these?- complete 180! These are massive, healthy looking seeds!
These germinated in no time and are thriving very well
I can’t wait for these lil guys to become food for the monarchs!! (Or, any other pollinators that want to join the party!)

I grew only a few seeds, but they came up fine, and I was able to get some delicious, sweet melon! I sprayed it once with a copper fungicide, and I should have done it a second time, but I still go melons. (I have a struggle with fungal problems here). Easy to grow, easy to eat!
This stuff feed my garden all summer. Highly recommend
This was one of my first tomatoes from MIgardener seed and I loved it so much. Very tasty green tomato, and even though it was only in a smallish container, it was one of my best producers! Nice clusters (not quite so big and dense as the photo, for me at least...) and great flavor for eating fresh in the garden. I'm not the best with tomatoes, I don't treat them as well as I should, and I grow in Seattle (8b?) which is finicky weather every year, so I was surprised these did so well! Will definitely grow again. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures saved on the vine, but the little green one in the attached photo is one of them!
Love sales. Time to stock up
Pollinators love this flower. Especially honey bees.
They grew in spring then reseeded themselves for fall.
