SASE offer Updated to page 1.

Buy organic potatoes? Have any sprout?

Don't throw them away, plant them!

Get a large storage tote with holes in the bottom.

put in 6" of soil, nestle sprouted potatoes on top of the soil.

Put 3" of soil over the potato.

When the stems are 6" tall, add 3" of more soil.

Keep doing that as it grows.

Let the plant flower, then completely die.

When there's no color except brown on the plant, dump the tub over and hunt for your potato treasure.

You should get more than you started with, some med/large potatoes, some "new" potatoes, and some "seed" potatoes.

If you deliberately plant potatoes every week, you'll be able to harvest some potatoes every week until frost.

This may cut back on the need to go buy some.

But if you do buy some and they sprout, this could be a way to have no waste, and gain some fresh ones, to make up for the old sprouted one.

If you live in a no frost zone, this is a way to have perpetual potatoes.

Use the used potato soil, to top dress a lawn, plant veggies, other than tomatoes or potatoes or plant flowers in.

One can make high sided raised beds to hide the potato tubs, if wanted. It can double as a cold frame, with a piece of corregated clear fiberglass on top of the bed/tubs.

I grew all of the potatoes in the photo, from one small sprouted potato.

This particular plant had been ground planted, not container grown.

A critter dug a foot wide hole in a garden bed I was prepping, so I just filled the hole with a potato plant, that I'd started in a pot.

To anyone who does't know, hilling potatoes (adding soil near the stem, as the plant grows), is done, so sunlight cannot reach the growing tubers and turn them toxic green.

I got some green on one small tuber of this plant, but I think it will be ok to be a seed potato.

Store the potatoes in a cool, dark place.

Over ripe Copia tomato, so striping has diminished.

It's in a Wendy's side salad tray, for comparison.

To all, This is an old post. I do NOT have any Green Zebra, Old Ivory Egg, or Snow White cherry anymore. I DO have some unknown tomato seeds, unknown variety short orange carrot seeds, parsnip seeds, cherry belle radish seeds, and a few detroit dark red beet seeds. I mostly give away seeds on listia.com now, as they go quick, without me waiting for postage. Listia works on a "credit", points system. There's no cost, except shipping, so it's like a seed exchange, but better. I list seeds, get credits from the winner of my listing, then spend those credits on other seeds I don't have. I got so many seeds doing this, that I don't need any, but I'll consider a trade. You might have something I don't have. If you want to trade, I'm seeking... 1. Alter Communist tomato - 2. Andes Horn Tomato - 3. Aurora Tomato 4. Wisconson 55 GOLD Tomato- 5. Backa Tomato - 6. Banjan Rumi/roomi 7. Barlow Jap - 8. Bedouin Tomato - 9. Angel Heart Tomato (persimmon x) heart tomato 10. Angora Super Sweet Cherry 11. non hybrid broccoli and possibly others. If you want to do SASE, it will be one stamp for tomato, carrot and parsnip seeds, and two stamps for the others, or all the seeds. For 2 stamps, the seeds will be sent in a bubble envelope WITHOUT tracking. If you want tracking, you'll have to send 5 stamps, for 1st class small packet. I had an old email on here, that apparently wasn't working. I changed it, so I should get messages now.

If you don't have zucchini, you don't have friends

This one was on the table at a book club potluck last week. Everyone raved and wanted the recipe. I'm going to cross post in new recipes. Zucchini Pickles - Heidi Swanson, 100 Cookbooks There are quite a number of ways to play around with the personality of these pickles. Sometimes I shave the zucchini paper-thin, resulting in a whispy tangle of pickled zucchini and onions. Other times I want my pickles to have a bit more bite, structure, and definition. In those instances, I slice the zucchini thicker, perhaps 1/8-inch, and let them drain as long as possible, sometimes overnight refrigerated. Also worth noting, when I make them for our personal condiment stash, I used a brown natural cane sugar. It gives the pickle liquid a brownish cast that, quite frankly, weirds people out if they don't know what is causing it. So, if I'm making the pickles to bring to a BBQ or something, I'll make them with regular organic cane sugar - one that is lighter in color.  3 medium zucchini (1 pound / 16 oz / 450 g), thinly sliced  1 medium white onion, thinly sliced  3 shallots, thinly sliced 1 1/2 tablespoons fine grain sea salt  1/4 cup (small handful) fresh dill sprigs 1 small fresh red chile pepper, very thinly sliced 1/2 tablespoon yellow mustard seeds 3/4 cup / 180 ml cider vinegar  3/4 cup / 180 ml white wine vinegar  1/3 cup / 1.75 oz / 50g natural cane sugar  Toss the zucchini, onion, shallots, and salt together in a colander and place over a bowl to catch the liquids. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least a couple hours. Toss once or twice along the way. You're aiming to get as much liquid out of the zucchini as possible.  When you're finished draining the zucchini, shake off any water. At this point you want the zucchini as dry as possible. Place in a 1 liter / 1 quart jar along with the dill, chile pepper, and mustard seeds. Alternately, you can cram them into a 3/4 liter Weck jar like I do, but it's always a bit snug in the jar. Combine the ciders and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring until the sugar dissolves, and continue to boil for a few minutes. Pour the liquid over the zucchini and seal the jar. Let cool, then refrigerate. The pickles are good for a week or so.   Makes one large jar. Prep time: 120 min - Cook time: 5 min Here is a link that might be useful: Quick pickled zucchini

Hybrid red orange handball - Parent's name was Qiyanai Huang "china orange", The possibly pure parent easily crossed. I know because I grew out the 2nd generation seeds, and they came out like in the photo, not round orange like the parent.

Hi
I mailed you the Genevieve Costoluto and other heirloom tomato seeds we discussed. The Sioux tomatoes I am growing are from this same group of seed packs. You are the first person I am sending Sioux tomato seeds and Indigo Blue Berries cherry tomato seeds.

You should receive them on Monday.
