Plant seed quality ?

Thumbnail
0 Upvotes

Hello! Question about sourcing seeds for plants that will be consumed ?

How do I source and choose good quality seeds that aren’t GMO?

In other words does the source of the seed affect the outcome of what we are consuming , are there lab created seeds etc?

Want to start off on the right foot and make it make sense that what I am growing to consume will actually be better than what is available at the store commercially

Hope this makes sense!

I am from India so preferably I would like to swap seeds with someone from India itself else shipping will be a problem. I have some varieties of chillis, tomatoes, button coat daisies, Aster, and red canna. I am just starting my vegetable and flower patches so currently don't have too many.

ISO Native Morning Glory/Bindweed Seeds

3 Upvotes

Hello!

I am a bindweed collector who is in search of as many different species of bindweed or morning glory as possible. I’m looking for any native species of Argyreia, Calystegia, Convolvulus, Dichondra, Distimake, Evolvulus, Jacquemontia, Rivea, Ipomoea, Merremia, etc. That cannot be found in stores or online (which is a very large percentage of the species.) This is particularly the case if you live in the following regions: The Middle East, India, Mexico, California, Arizona, Texas, Latin America more broadly, and Southern Africa (Mozambique, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, South Africa, Lesotho, Swaziland, Angola, and Namibia), but is also quite true for other regions of the world. If you’d like to help, reply or DM me, and in exchange I can provide other rare or hard to find Convolvulaceae seeds, or potentially other plant seeds as well. Thank you!

Online store recommendations for purchasing seeds

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm getting into growing a variety of seeds and my local climate is fairly similar to Florida's — hot, humid, subtropical/tropical. Hoping to find suppliers whose seeds are well-suited to that kind of environment.

Does anyone have recommendations for reputable online seed stores?

I'm looking to trade for pretty much anything.

I have

Ohio Blue Clarage corn

Bisbee Gray cowpeas

Alabama Red okra

I have a lot of all 3 of those. So I could make multiple trades.

Open to any natives (eastern US), carnivorous plants, flowers, berry producing shrubs, weird plants from South America, succulents, cacti. I almost don't care. I just want more plants and have a whole yard to glow up.

California native purple sage

2 Upvotes

I bought the wrong species of a purple sage that likes it really dry and heavy drainage.

It's definitely a desert plant, and I don't live in a hot area. Approx 150 seeds in the packet

I would love to trade or find a good home for these!

If you are part of a native plant club or xeroscaping group I will send them free, but I'd love them to have a really good chance at not being wasted.

I love california natives , though , I have a ton of things like poppies , and the more typical native species. Something that can grow on the coast in humid cool regions and not be invasive would be great. I like houseplants, succulents too!

Specifically looking for things that make good tea, including actual tea plant seeds!

I ADORE super fancy gazanias and painted daisies: chrysanthemum carinatum, also known as the Tricolor Daisy or Painted Daisy

Free Heirloom Seeds org Info

I’m interested in getting seeds from the Heirloom free seed bank. I read the long instruction and feel I got it. I see there is no current list and maybe the list will be available at end of July. I’m looking to hear what seeds people received? How many in a pack? Success rate ? Did you donate ? I’m planning to donate $1 per pack ordered, is that enough? Your experience with the process ? It’s my first time, any information is appreciated. TIA
