unicornduke Or maybe second seeds. Or third seeds. Depends on when you start looking at it. The first seeds in the new year have arrived!
I put in my big orders of seeds last week to the various companies and now they're on their way! I received two companies today, Kitazawa Seeds, which specializes in Asian fruits and vegetables. I ordered Wase Adzuki Beans so we can make red bean paste.
I also received my Sustainable Seed Company seeds which was the 5lb bag of hulless oats and a wheat variety called Plainsman V. It's a very high protein wheat that's apparently used as foundation to a lot of high protein wheat varieties. I'm not sure if I'm going to attempt spring wheat planting with this one or not. I've got another wheat variety I might try spring planting. I also need to consult my dad to see what he thinks. Elevation in the mountains can do funny things to frost dates and temperatures. They also threw in a free packet of chives, which I don't know if I'll grow but I might.
