Ten, actually I hope not, too.

Today is the last day anyone should be *starting* to add seeds. Minimum requirements need to be met today so that when I go through the lists tomorrow, I can tell who is and who isn't active.

Thursday afternoon/evening is the recommended 'last add' for anyone wishing to continue adding seeds to their lists because most people likely won't have time on Friday morning/afternoon to review what has been added.

As I was packing up seeds today, I realized I had more of some than I thought, so I've added another packet or two to some of my listings that showed as being on several of wish lists. I added one or two extra of the Bachelor's Button Classic Mixes, Ballerina Calif Poppy, Blue Monday sage, Crystal Star Columbine, Italian White sunflower, and Pink Senorita zinnia. Wish I had more to share. I'm still new to seed swapping and don't have much of a stash built up yet. So much fun, though!

I added a few things to my list

I'm adding some, too. Digging into my personal stash means most of the quantities are low, though, unfortunately.

I had to upgrade my seed storage method after all you guys twisted my arm and forced me to dib a bunch of seeds!

I got myself a plastic hanging file folder box: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/aw...

Put in the hanging files and drop in seed packets according to whatever organization you want!

I have a cute little cardboard florist's box and a little plastic recipe/coupon expanding accordion folder organizer thing I use when I have seeds I want to plant. Pluck em out, pop them in the box or coupon thing, plant, if there's leftovers, return to box.

Before this, I used a photo/craft container that was boxes in boxes and shoved related things together. I still use that actually, since I haven't transferred everything to the new system. So I have a small box for herbs, sunflower seeds, nasturtium, etc. I got it here: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/aw...











Great thing about that little system is being able to pop in a desiccant pack in each small box if you haven't crammed it full of seeds, and you can work with just one category at a time neatly. I kind of miss it as my main thing but it's just not big enough anymore! Maybe I'll say F it and just get like three more of those bahaha.

Also I think I read someone saying something about static and small seeds. I got these for that: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/aw...

A few of you should go in together to split an order of those, as it's A TON of bags, I think like four bags of 250 each? (Edit: Just checked mine, it's 10 bags of 100.) I still wrap my tiny seeds in a little bit of baking parchment before I put them in the bag but it helps guarantee that even if they slip out of the parchment you'll still be able to get them out. (Apologies to the one poor soul that got my white throatwort I packed before my order arrived! That's gonna be a bear, so sorry, haha!) If I were still in the swap I'd add a bunch of the bags for you guys! I have a lifetime supply!

As much fun as these swaps are, I'm going to have to sit this one out. I've used up my seed allowance for the next few months, plus I haven't had time to organize everything from the last swap.

Same here Okie.
I'll be cheering everyone from the sidelines for this one.

So I was reviewing the numbers just now and you all might recall that I was set to put the multiplier somewhere between 20-30, right? Well, you all continue to impress me every swap with your generosity and, as a result...

The multiplier might be a wee bit more than that.

Just a heads up, if there is anything from my list someone may miss out on please don't hesitate to contact me and ask if I have more. I just may, but don't have them listed. I'd be more than happy to add them for you.

I can't believe the trade is tomorrow already. Boy does time go by fast during the holidays.

I am so flippin excited! Lol.

Lvsgrtdanes, I am so going to take you up on your offer because I always miss out on something from you I want, lol.

Definitely Karen

I looked at the wishlist and added where I had extras. Again don't hesitate to ask if I have more of something.

Ronnie, that is so sweet. Same for me. I have lots more of some of what I'm listing.

Wish I could have had time to join but everyone activating their phone Christmas presents keeps me busy this time of year. Have fun all.

@joolie, I saw someone using the photo boxes on another site and figured I'd give them a try. I like that they offer better protection from elements and critters than my old shoe box method. Lol









I got these from Michaels. They are on sale right now for $20 and have 16 compartments inside. I got a clear one and saw they also had colored ones too. Some of you may notice that you forced me to need one just for daylillies!

Tomorrows the day, cant wait!

Couldn't have been me! <twiddles thumbs innocently>

Oh those have BIG outside containers! I'll have to see if they're on sale at my Michael's here, those look great. I bought my little ones something like 8 years ago for some unrelated thing and it didn't even occur to me they might be bigger, rofl! Thanks for posting the pic! Bonus that they're pretty colors, too!

A little plug for vma4922's Hibiscus, Hardy - mix of colors, 30+ seeds:

I scratched them with an Emory board, dropped them in almost too hot water with a couple of drops of peroxide, let them soak overnight and planted them last weekend.
There's a lot more than 30 coming up!

Exciting!

That's great! A little shameless plug for val.... I have several things in my yard from her. She's got great seeds, lol.
