Sometimes, when the gardening season is done, the next year you have packets of seeds left over and need to see whether or not these seeds are viable. This week we used ziplock bags, damp coffee filters/paper towels and ten seeds. We used ten so that when the seeds germinate it will be an easy percentage to work with. If 70-90% germinate, we will plant thickly. If less than this number sprout, we will discard the seeds. We will check on our seeds in a week.
We also started seeds for our tower garden. We put kale, lemon mint, lettuce and basil in the small holes and covered with the vermiculite medium.
