Many years ago, if you ordered a package of seed, you got enough to plant a 100 ft row. Then they began selling by the ounce 1, 1/2,
1/4oz and etc. Then by the Gram (which most of us never understood) and NOW!! it is by the "offering" (sounds religious to me).I got my seeds from Burges and was shocked to find my watermelon had 6 seed in the package, the Cantaloupe (1 pkg had 6 and one had 7). Cucumbers had 7(plus 1 not developed seed).
I bought a package of seedless watermelons at a local discount store,it had 7 seeds.
I don't know why I am posting this, except I need to vent my anger, and let people know it was not always a ripoff. QUESTION? Are their seed companies that sell by something other than "Offers"?
Also, let't talk about Heirloom seed, (saving your own). Where is a good source?
