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
Last year I decided to plant a "tunnel" of sunflowers on the other side of my tall blueberry bushes and these added a colorful variety to the typical yellow! These are now a favorite that will be a "grow again!"
I received a packet of this mix with a previous greenstalk order through MIgardener (best price around!) and was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to grow and how delicious it was! I’ve never grown salad greens before and this was the perfect mix. Even after burning out on gardening late in the summer, I will always look forward to growing this salad green mix in the spring. Thanks for introducing me!
Our banana peppers arrived fairly quickly, even though there was a winter storm in Michigan.
I'm sure they will do well, as most seeds from Migardener do well.
I’ve been growing these for multiple years now. I love all the little surprises that come up. I have quite a collection of cactus plants now, thanks to these seed packets.
Excellent germination! Excellent packaging! Probably jumped the gun a bit but only planted 6 seeds for now!
