Sweet peas, with their delicate and fragrant blossoms, make a charming addition to any garden, and their companions can enhance their beauty and health. Pairing them with nasturtiums, spinach, calendula, and lettuce creates a garden tapestry of color and fragrance. These companions not only offer a symphony of scents and colors but also attract beneficial pollinators, making your garden a pollinator-friendly haven. However, it's essential to remember that all parts of the sweet pea plant are poisonous, so exercise caution and refrain from ingesting any part of it. The combination of sweet peas with these delightful annuals ensures a garden filled with vibrant blooms and an inviting aroma, fostering a delightful and visually captivating garden environment.More
Wachter's True Gold ... far SUPERIOR to 'chain store' bought seeds!
I planted 100 Wachter's True Gold (dent corn for grinding) a week after planting Ferry-Morse Early Golden Bantam sweet corn. The 'F-M' had only 29% germination AND scrawny plants emerged. Wachter's True Gold had almost 80% ... easy to count from 100 seeds minus the missing spots AND it grew FASTER and HEALTHIER! Both types of corn were planted in the same fashion, EXACTLY! Wachter's True Gold has proved, 'so far anyway'; to be far superior. We'll see what harvest brings and I can update those results when the time comes.
This company has outstanding responsive customer service. Due to a death in family and moving across country, I was uncertain if my seeds would arrive before leaving. Communications were quick, accommodating and thoughtful. Best part, they offer excellent varieties and so far there's a very, very high germination rate. New favorite seed company!
This seed germinated in 2 days. I started my seed indoors under grow lights on 3/3 & when I went to water them on 3/5 they had already germinated. I hope my raised beds warm up quickly here in WI. I’ll be sticking with Thresh Seed from now on. I’ve also ordered Blonde Okra & Black Beauty Eggplant from Thresh Seed. I won’t be surprised if they also germinate very soon. I did buy a really good seed starter too.
I started the Apricot Lemonade Cosmos seed indoors on heat trays on Thursday & on Saturday, When I lifted the lid on the tray to spray each cell, almost all of the seeds had already germinated. I was absolutely amazed to see plants coming up in 2 days.
