Muddy Bucket Farm Exhales

[ContainerTed]

There is an event that can happen when you have only one seed left and don't know where to get more. It's called exhaling with a distinct sound of "Whew" followed by "Oh, Yeah!!" and then a fist pump.

Bravo, Viva la Ted

Yippee! Happy for you, Ted!

Congrats! It is scary planting that last seed. I'm glad that you can take a breath and now have hang on to make sure that baby survives.

Thank you folks. I also put my last two seeds of Gildo Pietroboni that I got from Amideutch back in 2009 in the mix and both are up after only 4 days. It's like Mother Nature is apologizing for last year.

That's great, Ted! I had that same thing happen. Planted my only seed of Bajaja 2 days ago and today it's showing a little loop! Boy, that's a great feeling, isn't it?

I can really identify with Ted’s euphoria. Am waiting with bated breath for my last German Queen seed to germinate. Ironically I had made a note that Muddy Bucket Farm has this variety so at least know where to get more for next season!

More where that came from Ted. Envelope on the way.

Thanks, Karen. That one little "last" seed was about half the size of the usual seeds for that variety, and, to be totally truthful, was not a "first choice" to plant. But I decided "What the heck, might as well give it a try".

BTW, I sent some mail to Ontario and it arrived with no fuss. So, it seems that envelopes can still go where no humans are allowed.

Be safe and be well. I really enjoy your facebook posts.

Captain Kirk to engineering: "What's the status, Mr. Scott?"
Commander Scott replies (imagine his Scottish accent) "Captain, there be babies here."

And, because the local folks here love German Queen, I keep plenty of seeds in stock. I have given the local high school greenhouse a couple of hundred seeds and then tried to teach them how to save their own. Very popular here.

Good to know! If my poor last one doesn't germinate I will get some from you for next season! I haven't grown this for a couple of years but remember it did really well so was hoping to get the last one going and save seeds! Should know in a couple of days. Your seeds seem to germinate really fast! Mine is in a damp paper towel in a plastic bag but maybe should have sown in starting mix on a heating mat. Each year some seeds do better in one or the other. It can be very mixed. We'll see!

maybe think about cloning that plant once its bigger. safety in numbers kind of thing.

It's sooo good to see some success in these days - I was more than happy when my old seeds from 2009 germinated within 5 days. But those from 2008 are still sleeping, sigh... But I won't give up!

Good luck with all your babies, Ted!

Thanks, Lady Friend. I've just this morning noted that I have good germ on one your grandson would be interested in.
