Saving seed
« on: December 17, 2008, 11:36 »
Discovered the easiest way to save seed, maybe I'm not the first?
Used to put seed on tissue/kitchen towel

Use baking parchment or greaseproof paper, works a treat, especially with wet and sticky seed

So far we saved runners, squashes, toms, courgettes and fennel

Being a bit of a newcomer to this veggie lark, I've not tried saving my own seed (yet), but I can see the advantage of using a non sticky type of paper.
Good idea.  :thumleft:  8)
I demand the right to buy seed of varieties that are not "distinct, uniform and stable".
