Seed Circle General Swap 3 - 2011-12

[zazen999]

Yes, course you can

[northepaul]

Just a quick question, as I am not in the pea/bean circle, can I grow them for this one if I wanted to?

[zazen999]

Just seen this WW - I'll add you anyway as someone always drops out!

[winstonwobble]

hi zaz if anyone else drops out can i be included pleeze did the seed saving last year and really enjoyed it thanks julia

[jackyspratty]

Still trying to decide! Ill try again with winter squash pollination!!! BUt will have a few back ups!! Ill get back to you all as soon as Ive researched! I may try beets for next year as I seem quite good at them, but ate them all his year!

I've had Aubergine 'Szechuan' from HSL so will give that a go (never grown aubergines before let alone saved seeds from them, so a learning experience!).

And I have about 8 Banana Shallot bulbs left from last year (grown from seeds), so I will replant these and wait!

Curry sniffa, I grew Jaunne Flamme a few years ago and found them really tasty. You might really like them as they have a lot of good reports, so if you have your heart set on them, give them a go.

Thanks bramble, I'd decided to go with Jaunne Flamme as we all have different tastes and like you said they do get a good review.

Thanks for posting!

I grew Jaune Flamme Tomatoes this year and had a good crop, but I found they tasted very bland. I personally wouldnt grow them again

Great thanks for the warning I've not sent for them yet, I'll look for a different tom to grow.

Thanks again!

[zazen999]

Absolutely....

Could I please take up the vacant spot? I would propose to contribute
blauwschokker capucijners
sweet dumpling winter squash
rainbow chard
My dictionary says that capucijners are almost, but not quite, exactly unlike marrowfat peas. (Well, ok, I admit that's not literally what my dictionary says, it's a paraphrase from The restaurant at the end of the universe by Douglas Adams.)

I've have a little look round the net and a GC and I was thinking of trying: Jimmy Nardello Pepper & Jaune Flamme Tomato for my first try what do you think? any good, look some more ? lol

zazen, sorry to be a pain, but i am going to withdraw from this swap, as i have now joined the beans and toms swaps.
i'm not sure what else i can grow to save seed from!!....beans and toms ( and leeks, but i cant remember the variety!) are my usual seed saving successes!.

thanks for letting me in, and sorry to muck you around.
