What do you think of these varieties? Have you had problems with any of them?

The total (including shipping) came to about $50. I feel like I went a little overboard. How much do you spend on seeds?

Sounds like you got a lot for your money!

I grow the waltham butternut, and let me tell you, they are prolific! I planted 16 vines and got over 100 squash. You might want to save back some for another year.

I've been wanting to try the bright lights chard. Looks beautiful. I love regular swiss chard and I'm hoping the color will influence my toddler to try it...ha.

The bright lights chard is wonderful!! It grows like crazy, tastes great, looks colorful on the plate and in the garden. It is one of my favs. I grow tons of it, lightly steam it and put into freezer bags. I use it all winter long in stir fries and in pasta. And the chickens love it and it grows well into winter.... can you tell I love it??

I have a coupon for Gurney's "Buy $50 in items for only $25" and a free shipping pass... I keep putting it off (ordering that is) since the coupon is good until Feb 10th... but you have convinced me to start shopping.

You got a TON more the I would need though... I can tell you that! You better share pictures of your garden this summer. Maybe send some left over produce down you don't use either.
