Well smear my naked body in honey & stake me down onto the nearest bull-ant nest!!!
I found a film canister (anyone remember them's olde-fashioned thinggies??) at the back of a fridge in the shed that I don't use much. Inside was about 200 seeds & a few grains of rice & a bit of paper that simply said "Home 2017". After much head-scratching, I figured-out that they were my first attempt at making seeds from seeds a mate gave me about a decade ago. Random reg's, unknown stuff & my mate was equally clueless as to what theyactually were.
Just for shits & giggles, I decided to soak a few of them for a day & then chucked them into paper towels. Absolutely NO expectations whatsoever & the shed temperature is (maybe) low-teens.
Still early days, but right now, I'm a happy (amazed) camper & soaking jiffy pellets to give them a decent chance at life.
