Growing from Seed

help me get started

19 years ago

Hi everyone. I've been vegetable gardening for about 9 years now and would like to start learning how to save seeds and start transplants for next season (instead of purchasing seedlings at nursery). Is there a good website or book that you would recommend to me? Also, what seed catalogs should I look into getting? Thanks!!

There's the Winter Sowing Exchange and Growing from Seed forum. Also Hudson Seeds and Thompson Morgan have good help sections. For germination and seed identification I go to:
tomclothier.hort.net/
http://theseedsite.co.uk/seedpods.html

http://www.virtualseeds.com/Germination.html

There are members that are much better informed than I. The members at the winter sowing exchange are very into growing from seed.
