  1. HI,Do any vegetable plants need to be pollinated by bees for the seed to be viable?  I'm thinking of stopping the bees from cross polinating, but wonder if the seeds would then produce a crop.

  2. bok choy, kale and broccoli are very easy. when the pods turn brown put them in a paper bag before the pods split and throw the seed. With my mild winter some of them can be planted right away for winter greens and others can be planted in succession to always have greens available. I will be gathering broccoli seed tomorrow.

  3. Hello! sorry for off topic, but Could you please add physalis (golden berry) in the app? 🙂 Trying to grow next year and it would be great to have them as an option for companion planting and planning !
