"I just planted the broccoli, destiny, hybrid seeds, online edition, and so far the process has been really simple. The seeds were easy to handle and planting instructions were clear. I'm excited to see how they grow since this variety is known for producing strong plants and quality broccoli heads looking forward to watching them develop over the next few weeks in the garden"
"I didn't follow germinating them in the house first because that's too much for me right now. But I did plant them directly outside in a fenced in graded with the instructions and we will see how they turn out!"
"My Ferry-Morse seeds have arrived just in time for me to start preparing them for Spring garden planting. I have my seed starting soil ready and the seeds appear to be great quality so I'm hoping for a successful gardening season."
"Perfect amount of seeds for a home garden! Easy to plant on a sunny garden spot and by the end of the week with proper watering, I hope to see some spouts coming up."
"Super easy to store for the coming planting season. This will be the fist time planting them so we will see happy it gets but from what I see it's gonna take off. Def worth adding try in the planting rotation."
"The broccoli seeds were a great addition to our garden. It took about a month to produce seeding, but they finally came in. I am excited to see the final results. I would definitely recommend this product to others."
"The seeds got here in great shape and the packaging was great and sturdy. I planted the seeds in my garden, but have not had anything sprout just yet. I have no doubt it will be fruitful, I just wish it would hurry up!"
"I got these seeds a few days before Mother’s Day I immediately planted them into a small pot and put them under a lamp for a week then into my garden. I don’t have any flowers yet but it is still early they are big and leafy though!"
