I am still learning on collecting seeds. Ive collected my seeds from peppers, tomatoes and something else i cant remember at the moment from last years try. Not everything I grew turned out as I was late for growing from moving. This year will be a better turn out and will have more to collect... maybe it was tomatoes.. hmm
That's so exciting to hear! Keep up the awesome work. It's all about going for it, experimenting and learning along the way. There are some great videos out there on seed saving. Saving seeds from some plants is easier than others. Lettuces and greens are some of the easiest to save. Just leave one plant unharvested and it will eventually bolt up about 4ft, flower and then the dried flowers will hold the seeds. You can put the plant into a paper bag after it's dried out and shake it to help remove the seeds. Rock it out and happy growing!
Oh thats cool, thank you for the great tips. My son enjoyed collecting lettuce last summer for a meal, and the beans and tomatoes. Told me he never wants to eat grocery store veggies anymore and hes only 6. It amazes me that at his age he can tell the difference, especially for an ever growing, always hungry child lol. So ya, I will definitely leave one plant grow fully to get the seeds. Thank you again ^_^
