Come Join Us! 4th Annual Tomato & Pepper Seed Exchange - Page 9

Just reposting the bonus offer so it is front and centre for anyone signing in.

_______________________________

Hi everyone,

Now that we have closed off the swap to new participants - it is time to move forward with more fun.

I have some miscellaneous vegetable seeds to give away as bonuses. These are only for the participants of this swap (from various forums). All are commercial purchases I picked up this year, with the exception of the cucumber. There are very limited quantities of these, so here is how we're going to do it:

1) Respond if interested and provide me with your top 6 picks, in order of preference. Please be specific. Do not respond, saying I am interested in any of the melons for example, as I will be dividing them up to those that responded with my specific instructions followed first. You will lose out if you are not specific. You can either respond by private message, or post here, it does not matter. I am going by time stamps on all responses, no matter what way you communicate with me. If you respond by email or private message, I will acknowledge receipt within a couple of days so you know it came through ok.

2) Preference for specific types will be given on a first come first serve basis, so you need to respond quickly.

3) I cannot guarantee you are able to get any of these seeds. It all depends on how many respond, and how quickly you respond, and how many individuals request the same seed. This is why I am asking you to identify your top 6 picks in order of preference, so your odds of getting something are higher.

4) I will post a periodic update as certain varieties are fully depleted.

5) PLEASE RESPOND NO LATER THAN OCTOBER 28th IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ANY OF THESE SEEDS

Here is the list of bonus seeds:

~~Bean - Rattlesnake Pole Bean~~ - Gone

Cucumber - Double Yield (donated by Elmtree3)

Eggplant - Black Beauty
Eggplant - Goya Kumba
~~Eggplant - Gretel~~ - Gone
~~Eggplant - Hansel~~ - Gone
~~Eggplant - Japanese Millionaire~~ - Gone

Thanks ..Heather
