I am having trouble with lettuce and spinach seeds this year. Planted a bunch, and almost none sprouted. Sadly, I dropped the container of seeds I had collected from on of the stalks I let go to seed last summer and saved to plant next year.
It got so lost in the carpet, I never could even find them. They were about the same color, and the carpet is berber with lots of varying heights and patterns. Sigh.
Carpet, seeds ......
reminded me of “back in the day” when I drove a Ford Pinto hatchback. The rear seat folded down and I could carry two bales of hay and/or bags of horse feed for my critters. One fine spring day (meaning the grass had come out so I had not had to haul hay for a couple of weeks) I had occasion to open the hatchback and surprise! surprise! ... growing in the carpet was a fairly nice crop of grass, sprouted from the seeds that had fallen off the bales of hay! Turns out the window had a leak and the carpet was fairly wet ... since the weather was warm, the Pinto was a perfect little hot house for growing things. It was pretty funny ... until I had to clean it up. :-)
