Saving Seeds
- seed saving basics - stored seed is best used the next year, though most seeds last up to 2-3 years. - take seeds from your best performing plants! “Tie a piece of twine or ribbon on the flower stalk so that you know to save that particular flower.” - store seeds in a cool and dry area. make sure that seed is completely dry - self-pollinating, cross-pollinating, open-pollinating. hybrids gon’ fuck you up bro
Vegetables
Beans, lettuce, peas, pepper, tomato w/ selection traits
Flowers
Petunias, Impatiens, Marigolds, Zinnias
make sure to store your seeds in PAPER envelopes, not plastic bags, because they can mold from residual moisture! I lost a whole bunch of Freesia seeds this way :(
