I got a ton of seeds for $3

Cheap seeds? On sale?

Cheap seeds? On sale?

Dollar Tree has them for 25 cents each! 4 for $1! We’ll see how good they are! But they look as good as any and that’s the cheapest I’ve seen seeds anywhere so I’m super excited lol I got 12 packs all for only $3! Compared to $12 or $24 or however much they’d be elsewhere, I think I got a great deal lol

Ours was a bit picked through but I still managed to find plenty of seeds. They have vegetables and stuff now instead of just flowers. Though of course they have flowers too.

Since I tend to kill seeds with amazing consistency, I like the idea of killing cheaper seeds!

Best wishes with yours!

It must be spring, the sun is shining through the patio door.
good buy on those seeds. I hope they grow for you.
I have been busy watching the high school basketball
tournaments. Otherwise I don't watch basketball.
One of our local teams won first place.
First one ever for them.. the school was built in 1955
Barb, what kind of seed are you going to kill next ?
My last batch was a whole flat of asparagus.
I don't mess with seeds anymore. I go right to the
living plants, like apple and cherry trees.. they take
a bit longer to kill, but I am patient..

Thank you both! I like the idea of killing cheaper seeds too LOL Usually I have pretty good success but so far this year not yet lol

I have not had any luck with that brand of seeds. I agree, I don't feel too bad about killing cheap seeds.
I wish you the best of luck with germination and your garden!

That’s unfortunate hopefully I might have better luck if not, I’m only out $3. Thanks for the warning and the well wishes!

The key to good germination in most seeds is to not really cover them. I plant on the top of the soil and water them in. Most seeds won't germinate if buried. I always put plastic wrap over them and set them in a sunny window. Not sure how you are starting your.
