I saved the chaff from many varieties of basil seeds and added to a pout-pourri because I love the aroma.Grazianahttp://www.erbeincucina.it/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-53870619541363148422012-09-30T06:29:00.953-04:002012-09-30T06:29:00.953-04:00Oh you are good - I tend to just leave quite a bit...Oh you are good - I tend to just leave quite a bit of the fluff in there but then my seeds are generally just for resowing rather than eating and those I do eat eg coriander are easy to separate.Lizhttp://www.suburbantomato.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-15096559228415587112012-09-29T19:16:32.723-04:002012-09-29T19:16:32.723-04:00Very nice picture of all your seeds!

I admire your patience doing all that. I have winnowed seeds on an occassion but do not regularly harvest seed like that. I had such a lousy dill crop this year, there was barely enough for me to use let alone save seed, but that dill seed makes me wish it had been otherwise.kitsapFGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06120640838501186514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-39593168466739674472012-09-28T21:03:48.626-04:002012-09-28T21:03:48.626-04:00Lettuce seeds are hard.

It is slow, but I only do it in front of the TV so I'm not bored out of my skull. Later I clean them better, but then again it is lettuce seed. It doesn't need to be as perfect as something I eat.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-18751793850650221822012-09-28T21:00:59.032-04:002012-09-28T21:00:59.032-04:00Beautiful seeds Daphne!

I've got a bunch of lettuce seeds waiting for me...it's one of those tasks that I put off.Wonderwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12462916045964512828noreply@blogger.com
