Great product
Excellent germination, beautiful vegetables, frost time fall gardener.
Better luck transplanting than usual. Still just sprouts tho
I haven't planted yet..I am going to plant this week end and see how far I can get before hard winter sets in.
I haven't used these, yet, but all the seeds I've bought from here have been great! In fact, unless it's something he doesn't sell, I buy all my seeds from MIgardener. (Jimmy Nardello peppers...hint, hint).
This is my first year growing straw flower. The germination rate is fantastic and you get so many seeds. Can't wait till they can moved outdoors and bloom in my purple flower bed.
Everything but the royal paste sprouted. Sometimes that happens. Will place another order for fall planting.
This variety was excellent for me for cooking. I needed to pick fewer leaves and chopping was a breeze. The spinich felt more succulent and thicker than the American (smaller spoon shaped leaves). I would use it for cooking and keep the smaller leaved varieties for raw salad eating. My weather was a tricky early on and off again spring and winter pattern, so I think that triggered early bolting, but even still. It was pretty hands off and worth it.
Awesome producer and neat looking fruit! The abundant cucumber beetles seem to ignore the vines too!
Haven’t planted yet. Looking forward to adding to salads! So happy MIgarden had these. Hard to find Microgreen seeds
