If I were better at plants, they would be great!

"I received my seeds at a weird point in the season so I had to do all of my growing inside. My sprouts seemed really promising but once I moved them from their little green house starter box, things went down hill quick. I must have over watered or something because they did not do well! I ended up without any veggies and moldy plants. Had I started these at a different time of year, I think I would be telling a different story!"

Strong and Healthy Plants, but Lower Germination Rate

"I received this product for free from Influenster and Ferry-Morse in exchange for an honest review. I rarely start plants from seeds as I always struggle with the germination of them. I had sowed the seeds in individual pots, placed them in full sun, and kept the soil moist. Although the rate was not super high (about 5 plants total in the packet), the plants that they produced have been strong and resilient We have not been able to get fruit yet as the campaign was not long enough, but the plants are now covered in flowers so I am expecting a late harvest. Fingers crossed that I can make a batch of zucchini bread! I also like that they are organic seeds. Overall, I would recommend these for a casual home gardener who is only looking for a few plants and a smaller harvest."

So far so good, but they were late in the season for planting

"I usually germinate my seeds in a wet paper towel places in a bag. I didn't have a bag so I placed it in a take out container. The seeds got moldy and I had to start all over. So far they are doing ok. I can't wait to have my own zucchini plant. They can grow pretty wild if you let them. They were kind of late in the season to be starting from seeds but we will see."

Flowering beautifully!!

"They are still growing but I want to finish my tasks in time. So far they are flowering beautifully and it’s looking like a promising harvest! These seeds seem like a quality great brand I’d turn to again!"

Lisapltr (5/5)

Growing Well

"I got the seeds for my squash about a month ago. The plant it’s doing really well. I haven’t seen any squash yet but I’m hopeful. The plant was very easy to plant. I put the seeds in my above ground garden and it’s doing really well. Can’t wait to see if I get any squash for the summer."

Isabelj28 (4/5)

Easy plant to grow for everyone

"These seeds germinate very quickly. After about a week, we saw our little sturdy sprouts. Now look at them! Zucchini sprouted beautifully. The plant is full and healthy. Flowering and looking forward to zucchini for dinner and dessert! I water once daily om between rain and these are full and healthy. It is very easy even for beginners. I highly recommend."

Bambil2bf0 (5/5)

Delicious

"these seeds were OK. The germination rate wasn’t the best as I only had a 50% success rate with the seats that I germinated however, the ones that did bloom are successful and delicious. "

Rachelt215 (5/5)

Looking forward to harvest

"I received these from Influenster in exchange for my honest review. I am very excited to see results from these organic heirloom zucchini seeds. I love to make zucchini bread with pineapple and nuts. These promise to germinate quickly with only 63 days to harvest."
