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).
Grew these for the past three years and I will keep growing them for many more. I highly recommend them. Great germination rate. Every onion grew to the size of baseballs and others a bit bigger and they store very well.Best long day onion I have ever grow.
I am very happy with my heirloom seeds. I cannot wait to germinate them.
Started my seeds on 12/31/25. I’ve had almost 100% germination and the onion seedlings are a couple of inches tall at this point (1/9/26). Looking forward to a great harvest!
