| *Seed removed from baggies, cleaned and stored - essentially to provide more room for growing plants - 4/25/02 | ||||||||
| Remaining 134 seeds included non-germinated seed originally sown in soil and poor looking seed in baggies, all which | ||||||||
| were discarded. We lost very few plants from tranplanting - less than ten. However, many plants that were not | ||||||||
| increased from original 2 oz. container size due to lack of growing area were also lost. We also did not do too well with | ||||||||
| Adventure (I did not pre-treat the seed.) | ||||||||
