TOPIC: Seeds arrived today - Pics showing embryo - looking good.

Hey Folks...

I ordered some seed on Monday and they arried this morning.

After work today I got to check them out, did a float test and that looked good. After 10 minutes only 48 floaters out of a pound of seed.

Here is a pic of the wad of seeds and as you can see - many are smiling.

I picked out a few and sliced them in two with a razor blade to check out the embryo development.

Managed to get a decent pic showing that.

Looks good to me. Even better (larger embryo) than the batch I got last year from the same supplier.

I have the entire week off next week and going to spend about 1/3 of it planting some wild-sim, about 1/3 deer hunting with my boy, and about 1/3 of it eating some Thanksgiving Dinner

Hope you all have a good one !

Nice, I'm going to try and plant 3 pounds this weekend. I just hope I have enough time.

TN - The seed looks pretty good to me. I just sent you an email, but then remembered that you really don't use that account. If you get a chance, could you send me an email? I've got a question for you that I probably shouldn't post on here.

You are right that the email I have associated with my wildgrown profile - I don't check that very often at all. Usually just a few times a year.

But if you will mention here that you emailed me using that email, I will go and check it and reply to you there.

I did that and answered your question.

Thanks

Thanks TNhunter , I appreciate the info..

Those seeds look real good. Good luck on hunting and planting TNHunter.

I spent a few hours in the woods this morning (absolutely bueatiful morning)... and planted about half a pound of seed.

I found a little spot up near the head of a hollow here on my place this summer where there was a nice patch of maidenhair fern and I marked it for planting and got that done today. I like planting along old logs... just seems like a natural place for seng.

I did mostly rake and scatter, but also used my sharp shooter shovel planter a bit too to get some into tighter spots too.

Here is what the first bed looked like after raking it good.

I planted another bed just below that first one...

And another one in that same area...



It felt good go get out there and work that rake some and drop seeds.

I am going to hit it again tomorrow moring and plant some more just down the hollow from these beds.
