Delicious
These peas are heirloom seeds, meaning at the end of the growing season you can allow a few pods to stay on until they dry out and replant the resulting seeds. The pack is fresh, with a plant by date of December 2027. They germinated and grew well, producing large and really tasty pods. We prefer to eat them pod and all, but you can shell them if you like.

Grow hundreds for the price of one "big-box-store", 6-pack
Easy, peasy! Grow hundreds of marigolds, for the price of one "big-box-store", 6-pack... excellent value for the large size, 400 seed count package. Germination rates were good, once I figured out how to do it! This year we've got marigolds everywhere; in the yard, in the planters and in the tomato and pepper beds (the French marigold keep the bad bugs from destroying the veggies). NON-GMO marigolds keep the NON-GMO veggies organic. AND marigolds are just a beautiful flower garden must-have. Yes I recommend these seeds. Yes, I would purchase again. Thank you.

Great germination rate and seed count
Planted 4 seeds in 4 containers to try and get germination rate. All 4 germinated. Great seeds. I would definitely purchase again. Also, it states 30+ seeds. I counted the seeds and there were exactly 45 seeds. That's 50% more seeds than stated.

Great product
Very fast and high rate of germination, probably in the +90% range. Plants are just beginning to mature and early leaves are pungent and flavorful.

Downgrade from five stars to one
Downgrade from five star to one because these are not pest resistant and despite my effort to seek such failed with this generic worded ‘round zucchini’. Now where can I find a variety listed. This is the list I now have for which to buy: Eight Ball: This variety is known for its dark green skin and tender, buttery flesh. It is also noted for its disease resistance, particularly against Yellow Mosaic Virus. Cue Ball: Features glossy, pale green skin with white speckles and very tender flesh. The plants are resistant to Yellow Mosaic Virus, making it a reliable choice for gardeners concerned with disease. One Ball: A yellow-fruited variety with smooth, glossy skin and high productivity. It is part of the Ball Series and is noted for its compact bush habit, which makes it suitable for containers or small spaces. Lucky 8: An early maturing variety with fruits that have dark and light green streaks and speckles. It is noted for its early harvest, beginning just 7 weeks from seeding, and its beautiful and delicious fruits. Piccolo: A vigorous hybrid summer squash that yields dozens of egg-shaped fruits. It is known for its productivity and compact growth, making it a good choice for gardeners looking for a robust and high-yielding plant. These varieties are not only appreciated for their culinary uses but also for their ability to resist common pests and diseases, making them a practical choice for gardeners looking to minimize the use of chemical treatments. I didn’t think anything of the one squash bug. I killed it. I make it a habit of checking leaves for eggs. None. On any. Even the donated summer squash has zero eggs and I could find any bugs. Even staked this to grow up instead of along the ground as seen in a prevention minimize pest video. Kaolin clay and water will hopefully knock out further harassment. It’s a shame about these because even with garlic planted around them, too, I had eggs laid since yesterday. Hoping this cures the issue but sadly won’t be repurchasing as I’m seeking the variety specific to deterrence and this, for our donation community garden, is not the answer. Germination was 100% and they’re growing awesome, for now. But I’m concerned about them collapsing if some odd pest figured out a way to infiltrate the now covered in kaolin plants. /\ update a few weeks later Why did you pick this product vs others?: Bought this zucchini based on the recommend for pest resistance. Direct planting is yielding 100% germination. Was able to relocate sprouts since three popped up in each space and didn’t wanna kill the other seedlings. Grows well in partial afternoon sun once it moved past the house. This seems to agree with the plants and maintaining their vibrant structure. The heat has not been an issue at all. We already have zucchini’s popping up everywhere. The plants fill up the bed. We have 4’x8’ spaces and six plants do well covering the entire space. Super happy with the results so far. These work well with drip hoses. And hand watered or hose. Haven’t tasted the produce results but soon. Excited to try different meals. Freeze for winter use. And the neighbor baking zucchini bread will be the way we can figure out if this zucchini is as tasty as a typical one. We had a horrible infestation that was not manageable last year no matter how hard we tried. This variety give me hope to have zucchini with less worry about a plant collapsing even though we try everything to deter pests. We will repurchase. The one packet was enough to plant a few beds. Direct to soil plant and waiter often to get it started. How I planted the seeds were in an egg crate single egg holder. With a bit of Osmocote fertilizer. A week later sprouts. The crate decays. I do this to ensure the seeds remain moist and do not get lost in watering. As sometimes the compost drifts when the ground is soaked with the hose or watering can. Recommend these seeds and type of pest resistant zucchini ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Good value
Excellent germination! A critter ate mine so I replanted and they popped right up!

The seeds are exactly what was promised
I finally planted some the other week and the sprouts are healthy and putting out their first sets of true leaves. I will have to thin a couple of them out as they grow, but right now they are all looking robust and happy. Would definitely buy from this vendor again.

Great basil seeds
Very happy with the turn out of these seeds. Growing them in my hydroponics garden, the plants turned out just beautiful.
