And The Winner is .... Pak Choi!
Nov. 2nd, 2006 07:42 amDid I mention I planted some seeds last Sunday? I planted some peas and beans as I know peas have a fast germination rate, and I expected to be checking them every few hours, just cos that's what you do. I planted bush peas, climbing pea (one), climbing beans, black and red beans I had been saving from I don't remember when, pakchoi, summer beetroot, nasturtiums, and ancient gourds.
And the peas did indeed start germinating first from what I could see, but two of the pak choi seeds have put forth their little seedling leaves! Since the seeds for the pak choi looked like poppy seeds, I was really not expecting that! So, the winner is .... Pak Choi!
:-)
Also, I am looking for pumpkin seeds which are not queensland blue, butternut, ironbark or JAP. :-) In particular I'd lioke some australian butter (they look like ironbark but the skin is the colour of butter nut and the flesh is sweet and easy to cut) or anything weird. I love pumpkin. I do admit I find the baby ones puzzling though. If any one has turk's turbans, I'd love to scam some seeds. I really MUST join Diggers' club this year.
