Or at least I can't. - MargyPowell River Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17580698518291129041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35356005.post-89988040301731560632016-12-03T20:28:47.825-08:002016-12-03T20:28:47.825-08:00That's almost like the self seeding that I'...That's almost like the self seeding that I've been getting.

I have had tomato plants start on their own but did not try to replant them. Maybe i should. I guess it depends on size of seed and storing them too.

Put three slices on soil, space them apart and put soil on top. I have yet try it out but will do in the spring and see how it works out. I have saved seeds from previous years to not much success.

I should have stopped picking beans earlier so I had mature ones to dry out-lesson for next year. I will try growing chamomile next year as I also drink a lot of chamomile tea.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12830177691014290662noreply@blogger.com
