Really I do! I have a terrible time resisting seeds. <br /><br />I had the same thing happen last year with my onion order (thankfully not this year too). I ended up using some old seed which worked but the germination rate was significantly lower and quite frankly I was dissappointed in not growing the variety I had set my heart on growing for that year.kitsapFGhttp://www.modernvictorygarden.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-49656838279676227022010-01-21T20:13:46.745-05:002010-01-21T20:13:46.745-05:00Holy cow, Daphne - what a great list!!

I don't even know if I have room to grow it with all my Asian greens. But the carrots are one of those I got extra of so I wouldn't run out (them and my spinach). I tend to put a lot of them in ground and thin. Hopefully you can find them from somewhere.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-91388960853292477772010-01-21T17:43:59.106-05:002010-01-21T17:43:59.106-05:00That's very sweet of you, Daphne.

I have summer (bolt resistant) lettuces, Mokum and Sugar Snax carrots and Gonzales cabbage on my wish list for next year. I'll be ordering some stuff (mostly peppers) from Ohio Heirloom Seeds next year, if you want to combine with my order. It's a good way to save on shipping costs ;-)Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-62416285424999444392010-01-21T17:28:50.583-05:002010-01-21T17:28:50.583-05:00Granny, well tell me which ones you wanted.

I'm a very seed rich gal.<br /><br />Carol, I was going to tone down the lettuce in the middle of summer and just do spring and fall,but then ended up with three summer varieties. Now I have to keep growing it. There are lots of rabbits in the neighborhood, but I've only seen signs once last year. The garden has a picket fence with closely spaced pickets, but occasionally I leave the gate open, or the wind blows it open (the latch no longer works and I've never fixed it). I think my late dog used to keep them at bay too. I rarely saw a rabbit in my yard, while I would see them all the time at the neighbors. Now of course we have had more rabbit and turkey sightings in the yard.<br /><br />Ribbit, I'm a bit overwhelmed by the abundance of tomatoes and greens, but I'll figure out a way.<br /><br />Bangchik, it is hard to keep from getting too many seeds. I think it is a disease.<br /><br />Toni, lol well most of my yard is in shade, so unless I cut down my trees I think I'll still have lawn.<br /><br />Meredith, true. Clothes and jewelry are much more expensive. A few seeds are pretty paltry. Plus a lot of them are from blogging friends.<br /><br />The Mom, I'm sure yours will get out soon. But the onions. Six is a lot of varieties to have on backorder right now. Especially since they only have about 15. <br /><br />Dan, I'm still pretty confident that I'll get my onion seed on time, so I should be fine. Thanks though.<br /><br />EG, it is a ton of seed for such a tiny little garden. I could just imagine pots everywhere. LOL It would be a great idea too if I didn't travel so much in the summer. Some year I'll invest in some drip irrigation and I'll be able to not worry about pots.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-46318499642968021862010-01-21T17:21:20.691-05:002010-01-21T17:21:20.691-05:00Been there.

I way overestimate what I can fit in my small vegetable gardener, and I'm convinced I have some kind of seed addiction.<br /><br />But then, as I told my husband, it's not as bad as if I had an addiction to jewelry or shopping. Seed packets are only a couple of bucks a piece -- and what wealth is contained within each! :)Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11454557080455458675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-69694884249361756712010-01-21T15:09:15.517-05:002010-01-21T15:09:15.517-05:00Daphne!

I guess you will have a continual supply of lettuce... I look forward to seeing how you fit all these 'plants to be' into your garden. I am determined the rabbits will not eat my veggies this year. They defeated me last year and for me not to have my veggie garden seems criminal! Truthfully it is my favorite part of the garden. Luckily we have great farmer's markets so I had lots of great fresh food... but it is not the same at all.
