Kale Siberian Heirloom Seeds 175 Seeds Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This kale has been great, although a little more bitter tasting than I anticipated. It is not for the faint hearted! Garden snails love it, but I just soak the leaves in a tub of water with a tsp. bleach and it kills them and their eggs. All the seeds were viable. I planted them in a more moist area of the garden, and also a sandy/dry area, and both places it did excellent. Greensmoothiegirl.com has some great recipes for using kale in smoothies, and the energy kale gives you is UNBELIEVABLE. Kale is a garden essential, it packs the most nutrition ever. And, now that we've had our first frost it is taking on more flavor. And it looks kind pretty.

Introduced well over a hundred years ago by Russian traders this vegetable is one of the most nutritious greens available. Although you can use it in stews and soups it is easier and quicker to just sautee with olive oil and garlic. Like most greens it likes the cool seasons to perform its best. This packet contains enough seeds for a 25 foot row.

Compact Winter Squash Seeds - Early Butternut & Delicata Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was looking for an early butternut squash to try out. Now it arrived as a dual packet and sure enough so it says but for some reason I didn't catch on to that. The problem with it being a dual item is we have only room for 1 to 2 plants at best and probably can not tell if the plants that come up are going to be butternut or the delicata? To use it does matter.
Otherwise I am glad to have found a shorter season winter squash and who knows perhaps if it turns out to be delicata we'll find we like it as much or more. Until then....I don't think mixed seeds are such a great idea. You'd sell more....plus I don't want to make my own hybrids.

When planting make sure your soil isn't soggy, just consistently moist. If the seeds spend too much time in cold soggy soil they will rot.

Italian Summer Squash Seeds - Trombetta di Albenga Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I received the seeds for this Italian heirloom zucchini from Fernley, Nevada by USPS on 09/27/10, four days after I ordered them (09/23/10). These little darlin's were sent out the day AFTER I ordered them. Cudos to Renee Shepherd (AND USPS)! Now regarding the order: the packaging states that there are 25 seeds per packet, but by golly, there were 26 in there! (Now, I've had every kind of shipping oops and heartbreak you can think of since the onset of on-line shopping, but that extra little seed put a grin on my face. I can live with that!) They were nice healthy looking seeds, too...not those little, flat, useless ones. Here's to seeing how well they grow...
This was the perfect transaction and order. :-)

(More customer reviews)...the seeds were fresh. I usually have no trouble with this particular brand, but am very disappointed with the packet I got. It was packed for 2009, so maybe that has something to do with it. But then, seeds are usually viable for a couple of years....so....?

Black Japanese Futsu Squash 10 Seeds/Seed-Rare Heirloom Review

Average Reviews:

Rare, black Japanese squash, the fruit is flattened, round and has heavy ribbing. Very unique and beautiful. The black fruit will turn a rich chestnut color in storage. Flesh is golden color and has the rich taste of hazelnuts. Can be eaten as puree or roasted. Can be stored for an extraordinarily long time if well ripened in autumn. Fruits are 3-8 lbs. each and vines give huge yields. Popular with European market growers. Good insect resistance. From direct sowing: 110-120 days. Heirloom variety originally from Japan

Lunar White Carrot 100 Seeds - Tender,Coreless,Sweet Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)What nonsense in the previous review. And a false premise, too; to judge a carrot's "goodness" and "naturalness" by its colour can be misleading, as the *original* orange carrot was an artificial product of selective breeding developed just a few centuries ago, for one of the most important political families of the day - the House of Orange. (Carrots actually come originally from the middle east, in a variety of colours including cream, yellow, red and purple).
I am absolutely delighted to find Kuttiger here, after my previous stockist ceased holding it. I encountered it the first year I built raised veg beds, and it remains my favourite in terms of flavour and hardiness. I also appreciate the novelty - if I choose to grow a vegetable rather than buy it at the market, it had better excel in as many categories as possible!
Kuttiger is a heritage variety that was considered a delicacy in mainland Europe in the 17th century - deservedly so, in my opinion. Taste when cooked is fairly ordinary, though less sweet than some of the more common varieties. However, raw Kuttiger has real depth of flavour, a little "carrot-toppy", with hints of celery and parsnip. Texture is firmer than the common orange carrot, though not woody like parsnips.
The short, thick root makes this plant hardy in times of drought, and bolting resistance is good (though a bite on a bolted raw root will hurt your teeth!). Finally, seed longevity is excellent - not a one of my brand new packet of "purple haze" sprouted last year; but the remnants of my kuttiger stock, a stray packet open 3 years and kept in unsympathetic conditions, all took well in my sandy soil right next to the defunct "hazes".
Not the primary choice if you're the type who's prepared to slave for maximum sweetness: but brilliant if you want something different, tasty...and a reliable "side bet" in case the weather gets your pet crop!

V8 Vegetable Juice, 12 oz. plastic bottle (12 pack) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)While most members of my family like orange juice, it's much too sweet for my taste, so for a bit of extra Vitamin C, I opt for a fresh orange instead.
And when it comes to my juice drink, I've always liked the flavor of V-8. Not only does it taste good to me, since it's made from tomatoes and seven other vegetables--beets, celery, carrots, lettuce, parsley, watercress and spinach--it's healthy, also. While I get a hint of all those veggies in my V-8, the celery flavor seems dominant to me ... a flavor I love, incidentally. Whether this is unique with me, I have no idea. It's something I don't discuss with friends. All I know is that I can't help but smile as it slides down my throat. Yum ...
Another thing I like about V-8 is that since the kids in the family don't like it (sorry, Campbell's), I never have to worry about running out. But what I don't like about it is that it's high in sodium, thus requiring that I limit myself to 4 ounces every other day.
I know! I know! They make low-sodium V-8, but I've tried it and it's not for me. Just doesn't taste the same! However, in addition to my favorite, the Original, Campbell's also makes several other varieties: Spicy, Lemon, Picante, Low-Sodium, and Organic. I'm also a person who likes "lemon" flavor (such as lemon-meringue pie), so I plan to try the lemon soon.
There's something for everybody, so try it! You might like it! I certainly do! (Since I love the taste of this product so much, I feel guilty giving it a four-star, but I had to knock off one point due to the high-sodium factor.)

Purple Dragon Carrot 350 Seeds - Absolutely unique Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First off, nothing I have purchased from Hirts has produced anything like the pictures, I'm positive they turn the saturation way up on the photos for showmanship. Despite my carrots not looking very much like the photo they were not a disappointment & the seeds came with instructions good enough for a novice planter. I did dock a star or two since what I saw in the photo and what I got were the most different of anything Ive gotten from this seller. In fact I wonder if my pack had atomic red carrots by mistake.
In the Rocky Mountain region around 30% of my seeds sprouted but this was my first time planting carrots. The carrots that resulted were more of a beet red than a purple, making them look like long bright beets. The colored flesh is only a millimeter deep, meaning only a scratch reveals the orange inside. The shape of the carrot was rather normal instead of tubular like online. The flavor was more earthy than a commercial carrot. I still recommend them, the shock value is there and they were great for coloring up sushi, salads, and steaming them takes out any bitterness.

Absolutely unique, purple-skinned carrots with deep orange flesh. They look amazing in salads or as a steamed vegetable. Roots have a high antioxidant and vitamin content, so are best eaten raw and are perfect for making carrot juice.
