Oregano, with its aromatic leaves and culinary versatility, is a fantastic garden addition that offers various companionship benefits. Planting oregano near beans, peas, and broccoli can help deter aphids and other common pests, promoting the overall health of these crops. Additionally, oregano's strong scent can help mask the aroma of neighboring plants, acting as a natural pest repellent. This herb's companionship not only enhances your garden's pest resistance but also adds a delightful flavor to your culinary endeavors, making it an invaluable asset to your garden ecosystem.More
Zone 10b. I was so excited for these. All the seeds germinated so I ended up with 5 huge viney, very productive plants. Gave up trying to contain them . Next year I might try to make better use of the tomato cages. These tomatoes are so great for snacking, bruschetta, caprese salad, pizzas, etc. Once they start producing it can be hard to keep up. Almost getting a pound every few days and they are still going strong. Highly recommend!
Zone 10b. I only planted one of these seeds and went heavy on the Texas Tiny seeds. However I wish I sowed more. They are beautiful. Hornworms ended up taking out about half the plant pretty much overnight right when it started to fruit. Pictures are from before the devastation. It recovered though and is still producing new fruit.
Zone 10b. My first time growing these. Shishitos have always been my favorite pepper to grill up to eat. 2 out of 2 seeds sprouted. Slow to grow but absolutely worth the wait. Such a great flavor to them. The aphids and hornworms liked em too so keep an eye out (which likely slowed their growth too). Definitely going to grow double the number of plants next year.
Two out of two sprouted in the beginning of May. Replanted in different sized containers. Both are still going strong, producing flowers! They are nice and spicy!
Beautiful kale with great flavor. Very hearty and has been very reliable from germination to harvest. This is one I will keep growing for many many seasons to come.
Got these zucchinis to try because they looked and sounded lovely. They grew beautifully and have a very good flavor (both when picked smaller and larger). Since I’m typically just gardening to feed myself, a smaller zucchini like this is ideal for having fresh produce to cook with while also not becoming over run with zucchinis.
Thriving Cinnamon Basil with Abundant Harvests and Incredible Flavor
I’m a beginner gardener with a raised garden bed in Northeast Florida (Zone 9A), and my Cinnamon Basil from Threshseed has been such a joy to grow! The plant is thriving, and I’m able to harvest abundantly weekly. The flavor is warm—it adds a special touch to so many dishes. My favorite way to use it is in homemade pesto, where I swap walnuts for pine nuts, and it turns out absolutely delicious. The plants are vigorous and easy to care for, making this variety perfect for new gardeners like me. I’ll definitely be planting it again next season if needed!
Our first time trying this variety. Very meaty, great producer as well. We had no problems from germination to harvest, cant wait to get more of these.
Sprouted in a couple weeks (as expected, based on info from site)
30/50 little sprouts doing well! Going to transplant from grow tray to small biodegradable pots probably in next week or so.
I don't think any of the seeds I planted failed to germinate. I had to do a lot more thinning out than expected. The plants are beautiful! Too soon for beans, but I am optimistic they will be awesome.
