I’ve been considering my seed purchase for next year.
Do I order now and have them?
Or wait and see if the country doesn’t fall apart after all, and order fresher seeds later but risk not getting them because of panic buying or shipping issues?
I’m leaning towards just getting them now.
Since the onion seeds I want, the Milano Di Rossa, are carried at Johnny’s, I’ll be ordering from them. They have a link on their website for storing seeds for best viability. I thought it was very useful information to pass on for anyone who wants to save their own seeds.
Yeah, you really got me thinking, too. I did a seed inventory a while back and if push comes to shove, I have seed on hand for a decent garden for next season.
BUT, it probably would be prudent to have some backup seed. Even if it is 2024, most will be just fine for the 2025 garden.
My drying beans (Good Mother Stallard) produced a great crop this season - I did double what I did last year and since they’re relatively care-free, I’ll up that for next year.
