My mom told me I can start shipping seeds out again! I have decided to plant 2081 Mendi as one of my plants, but I would like to plant two in case that one fails (gotta show the kids in the school I'm growing in at least something). Here is a list of seeds I'd be interested in if you have...
2183 Mendi
2593 Paton
2356 Mendi
2164 Skinner SQ (may as well try)
Here are just a few that I can trade you...
one 2554 Andrusz
one 2350 Gienger
one 2007 Urena
one 2175 Urena
one 2069 Stelts
If you are willing to part with any of the 4 seeds I listed, please email me at rosenthaljonah25@gmail.com

Grow a 1989.5 it’s 50% 2356 and 50% 1747 my 2356 was 18% heavy and had a perfect shape!

1989.5 is a good cross, it should grow some monsters but sadly I do not have one in my possession

the 1989.5 has great potential for big and heavy, but it is not orange tanner. I am actually thinking about 1989 for a potential squashkin. If I was Jonah, I would plant the 2350. In fact, I am planning on planting the 2350 myself. Potentially big and beautiful orange Even if things don't go as well as planned...still could have something that the neighbors get excited about.

bnot, have you traded that 2183 away yet? Just a question out of curiosity

no, i still have the 2183...i do not really expect to trade...no other seed would interest me to trade for. I did send 2 of them away last year to good growers. I couldn't see myself holding three of them if I didn't have the environment that it could reach its potential.If my soil this year shows that I made enough progress with the prep i did last year, I might plant my remaining one in 2024. I couldn't see wasting that seed in a garden that was nearly pure sand.

Jonah, have you thought about the 1875 Mendi 2017? It was the seed that grew the 2593. I still have one.

If you're willing to part with your 1875, I would grow it this year

Jonah,I would trade you the 1875 Mendi for the 2350 Gienger. I might some year plant the 1875, it was after all one of the dream seeds of mine. But this year, I know I am planting the 2350. Having a backup would raise the chance of making a cross I want.

Tanner, I do not have a 1989.5 yet. It wouldn't be planted this year but maybe next year. May I interest you in a trade. You like heavy rocks. Would you like to trade a 1989.5 seed for a 1625.5 Gantner 2013 seed. I have two of them. You might know someone that would like one of the original rocks.

sounds like a good offer. bnot, could you possibly email me a shipping address where I can send the 2350 to?

I will email you Jonah

I thought about crossing the 1625 back into my 1989.5!

3/8/2023 8:39:25 PM

Austin MN

I’ll trade ya 2 1989.5s for the 2554

3/8/2023 8:42:02 PM

Tanner, if you should decide to cross the 1625.5 back into the 1989 and need seeds, send me an email. I have held them for many years, I doubt they will be going away soon.

hmmm....interesting possibility...2554 x 1989. Could it be the best of everything...big, heavy, shape and orange....
