Starting 87 Year Old Seeds

[JohnJones]

Worth, I'm assuming you just posted a comment under the initial YouTube video that started this thread, correct?

If so, we both posted a comment about the same time last night and he responded to yours and is ignoring mine, which I don't like regarding honesty. I will give it some time, but I might use your seller email address if he chooses not to answer the simple questions.

Interesting, to me, advertising piece showing how at least some of these seeds were sold

It has been an interesting thread, JJ. Thanks for posting it.

I had to go from top comments to last comments to see yous in the settings.
Even though I sounded rude I think the guy replied like a spoiled brat to my questions.

If someone would have asked me the same thing I would have answered nicely because I am not a lair.

You should have seen the debate I got into about running a lathe backwards and out to cut threads.
It took some old school machinists to come on and say I was correct and they did it too.

You bet, glad you and others were interested. What attracted me in the first place were those beautiful seed packets with a lettuce and radish I have grown so I continue to research the company.

John You mentioned in another post you haven't figured out how to multi quote.

If you look in the bottom right hand corner you will see a quotation mark button to the right of the quote button.
Click on this for every person you want to quote then hit the quote button and they will all come up in your post.

If I ran a lathe in any direction, bad things would likely happen.

Agree
If you are honest just reply in kind and give your action a bit of benefit of doubt, like "maybe I was misled or frauded ". But the guy won't admit that he could be wrong. There are a lot of internet con artists. Be aware !!.
don't buy their claims at the face value.

I had another problem with that video. Look at the percentage of seeds that SANK IMMEDIATELY! Most of them did. After 87 years, there should have been mostly floaters initially, no?

I have considered getting into doing these YouTube videos.
It would be so off the wall from everyone else.
Cooking, baking, meat curing, sausage making, canning, fermenting, welding, machine work, wood work, gardening, seed starting, electrical contraptions contraptions in general, critters.
If done correctly it would be the perfect place for me to share all the things I know how to do.

Hate to say it but all those things could fall under the Prepper heading.
