Sacaton Aboriginal

The O'odham planted cotton "when the mesquite began to leaf out."  From our Seed Bank Collection.

I have not planted the Sacaton Aboriginal as of yet, but I have planted a few of the melons. And I am happy with the order I received. I plan on ordering more seeds for the future.

Growing well.

All the seeds germinated, which is always exciting. I realize that some I planted get too much shade as they are much smaller than the others. So in the future, full sun, it is!

easy germination

I started some seeds ahead in the greenhouse that I will plant out later in the season. Fast, 100% germination rate... so far so good!
