Saving Seeds.........


Our neighbor gave us a melon from her son's garden.  It was one of the smaller muskmelons.  I liked the size and thought maybe I would try growing them next year. Two people can eat one melon at a meal and nothing is left over to be put in the fridge.  Saving seed from melons is sure easy compared to some plants like tomatoes. I can see that this seed was not washed well but I don't think that will be a problem.  I will store them in an envelope once I am sure they have dried out thoroughly.

I did the same, Larry. The next year we will plant less tomatoes to harvest some melons.
I saved seeds of green pepers and of different tomatoes.
Have a nice week-end !
