Theseedobsesser is the BOMB!

What is the bleach for?

What theseedobsesser said. I'm just following the directions which begin with "water/bleach mix for 7 days".

Ok, Red. I want to be first in line for Cloudberry Jam when the time comes!

I am okay with you getting in line. This will be a labor of love! When I start bragging that I've harvested 10-12 berries some 4-5 years down the line, remind me and I'll send you some.

After that germination inhibitor breaks down, the seeds are probably going to have to go through a cold period to break their dormancy.

Yup! After the week in bleachy water, comes time in my refrigerator. Plenty of time this week to clean out a spot and gild the area for resting my precious seeds.

Still walking on "CLOUDberry NINE, PhilaG. Winter here has faded into the background for a while.

Red, according to the wisdom of Marshall Smyth, you should be EATING those seeds and........ahem........well, you know.......

 

[Smart Red]

I would do that for sure if it were in the directions. Not eating, mind you, but swallowing them.

No problem sitting on the throne for these valuable assets. Whatever it takes short of my first born.

I think SeedO's mama is raising him right. He's such a nice, young, responsible young man.

Careful there, Mary.

Most nice, young, responsible men don't appreciate being called "nice, young and responsible" until they are a bit older (and the right woman sees all those traits as good man-material). Right now SeeO is a handsome, intelligent, macho, silent-type who would be a bit dangerous if not for his love of seeds and gardening.

And I fear we'd better quite teasing him before we chase him away. Ya never want to chase away a keeper.

Well what can I say? It sure isn't my dad.

OMG...

Don't turn your face red, SeedO, just mumble "thanks Mam" and take your bows!

SeedO, if you're anything like I was at 16, when they start getting all mushy like that it's time to go outside for a long bicycle ride on the Schwinn 10 speed varsity...

ER...um...back to the BOMB! I currently have a dozen CLOUDS and one FOG -- that is one seed is no longer floating. A good sign, I hope.
