acorn squash

i got some seeds from a waitrose acorn squash earlier this year. i dried the seeds and put some of them on a piece of damp tissue, and then in a little plastic box. 1 and a half weeks later not a peep from them. i forget about them and found the box today only to see little healthy acorn squash seedlings  a good root system and two seed leaves on each plants.

i am well pleased
