  1. Thanks for sharing your information about different types of seeds. I can't wait to start planting this year! 🥀🌻🌷🥒🍅🫑🌽

  2. You know when you are bringing wood into the house on that dolley if you would lay a 2 by 4 or 2 by 6 flat in front of the step the Dolly will roll up into the house easier.

  3. Ever wonder why there are hundres if not thousands of seeds in a seed package? C'mon, who can really grow and eat 900 beets?

    The reason has to do with marketing more than practicality.

    Seed companies won't mail out just 10 seeds and besides, if they did, most people would kill all 10.

    The secret to effective seeding is patience, but I have a hack.

    I "sprout" 4 or 5 individual seeds on a wet paper towel draped across the lid of a plastic food tray with slots cut with a pencil soldering iron, the towel ends dangling in water in the tray. I know in about one day, if the little rascals are germinating and when I'm satisfied they are, I grow them into seedlings, transplanting JUST ONE into a single wicking tub.

    Tedious? Kinda, but not as tedious as crawling around in the dirt planting a gerzillian seeds, 90 percent of which will either not germinate or will be culled by "thinning".

    Now, realize, I grow in containers and I have a greenhouse, so that's something additional to consider as well.

    Just to let you know, I am a guy and guys are impulsive (maybe gals are in the same boat, IDK) and I bought BOTH big and little Survival seed packages from Kaye's link.
    It helps her channel and I planned on giving away most of the seeds to my only friend, who subsequently lives on the farm next to me. We are each avid growers, both of vegetables as well as beef.

    I hope my hack doesn't kill seed sales.

    Not likely.

    In 74 years, people have never listened to my babble, but if you want to boost your productivity, feel free to be the first.

  4. So awesome. I hope you will offer some of your extra seeds for sale. I know I want some Lamb's Quarters, Egyptian spinach, and Sweet Annie.

  5. I'm getting antsy to plant my garden this spring. Bought some seeds from the MIGardener channel up here in Michigan. They carry heirloom seeds too. Got impatient and put a couple of the lettuse seeds in a pot on a south facing window sill. They all sprouted, now I have to figure what to do with them, as it is way too early to plant out up here in the UP of Michigan. Hope you have a good time planning your garden for this year!

  6. I've have and still am growing Ishakura Bunching onions from Kitazawa and they are awesome. They grow through our winters and our hot summers. Excellent green onions!

  7. Kaye? Cotton is illegal to grow in some US states. I know NC is one of them, and perhaps Tennessee is also. There's a boll weevil eradication problem that can take out the whole of the industry so there's some pretty strict regulations on cotton in this area. You might want to check on growing cotton.

  8. Hi, Kaye! Hoss does offer much smaller seed packets, too, and they have one of the best seed storage facilities in the market. They print their germination rates on every package, and I can speak from experience that they have the best germination rates available. You excel at seed saving! What a great variety, too! I'll have to see if Sweet Annie will grow here, and if it does, get some started. 🥰

  9. Hello 👋 kaye, oh thankyou a lovely vidio so exited to think of ghe seed time and spring 😊 will be on the way before we know it,,lovely sound of your chimes ,have a lovely day,xx

  10. I had Spring fever today in Connecticut 50゚ we haven't had a good snow storm yet. I can't wait to get out and work in my garden and plant my potatoes . this year I'm gonna try sweet potatoes. Good luck Kaye 👍 i love your videos.

  11. Kaye. I can't wait to plant.. your a state above me… so we can grow similar plants….I'm very curious about sweet Annie and the cow peas.. have you ever used horse manure? I learned alot from what worked and what didn't last year.. I've already started my sweet potato slips.. so much to do before actual planting!!!! Can't wait to see your garden!!!!

  12. I had to do some googling but I grew up on the Lamb's Quarters. I have it growing wild in my front yard now. I googled both to make sure they were the same but I grew up calling it Lamb squatter. Grandma used to pick it and poke salad and mix them for greens. Sounds like you are going to have your hands full with all those seeds!

  13. I always grow the yardlong bean just for pickling. We pick them when they are the thickness of spaghetti and curl into jars and use Mrs Wages Dill pickle mix to make refrigerator pickles. My grandchildren beg every year for pickled green spaghetti! Makes a pretty good snap bean if you pick them young. Didn't like them if they got to full size though. Make sure to put them on a good trellis because they get over 8 feet tall. We use cattle panels to make our arches.
