First, the seeds I got need to grow. If they do, I will be surprised.

It will be exciting for you when they do indeed grow! I have a brown thumb and my garden last year proved it. I spent more on buying and replanting re-planting than the 2 zucchini and half a dozen tomatoes would've cost. But the thrill of having grown them myself was worth something, I suppose. This year, since I will spend half the summer away from the house, I'm just growing herbs in pots. Not exactly a necessity when TSHTF, but at least I'm feeling capable at one gardening endeavor.

Good afternoon. These threads can be both serious, and humorous.

Funny the other day I was ask if I knew where those could be brought as the guy real liked them!

Gag me with a spoon (ACK!).

Don’t be surprised! That’s what seeds do!

I tend to try the same seeds in various areas with slightly different sun exposure, soil, amount of water, and let what’s doing the best do the best.

Also, most areas have at least a few natural plants that will kill you in a heartbeat, so be careful and ALWAYS identify the plant.

Even if they don't kill you in a heartbeat, some of them are downright nasty!

(Personally, I think coyotillo is the creepiest poisonous plant in America!)
