Letting dill go into seed is great! There is nothing better then chicken gravy with dill seeds. I also use the dill seed heads to add to my ferments and pickles.very versatile!
Surprised you didn't include dill seeds with the fennel and caraway.
easy to grow sesame seeds and they are a very pretty flower during the summer
Can I just clarify with you the bit about poppy seeds? I know that we have them on bread etc…but i recall as a child eating a handful of poppy seeds from pods and made myself rather poorly, hallucinating etc I assumed for the rest of my life that they must have not been the type of seeds which you find on bread etc…. a different variety perhaps…you will understand my caution therefore. So you are saying that it is ok to eat these seeds for sure, absolutely, definitely?
Oh my stars! I am going to try quinoa next season. What a brilliant idea! And all the ideas for the seeds you showed, so many possibilities! Why grow the everyday, when you can grow the phenomenal?! Thank you once again for opening up my mind to the wonders that await! Continued blessings, daisy@MapleHill101
Interesting and useful! Thanks! Wouldn't the young leaves of the Amaranth be edible? Mexicans eat them. They call them 'quelites'
Sunflowers are a staple in my gardens. I don't eat many of the seeds myself, but the chickens and turkeys love them all winter long. The stocks are a favorite of the goats, and I swear the milk tastes sunny after they spend a couple weeks noshing on them.
I want to grow chia seeds, someone recommended them to me. I haven’t had much luck with amaranth. Maybe the drought, maybe dodgy seeds.
We're going to try growing quinoa this year and also black oil sunflowers in our 3 sisters plot for the trellises and seeds for the birds, I want to spoil the birds and thank them for eating all the insects and aerating the ground 🙂
Can quinoa be grown from quinoa seeds you buy from the supermarket?
I will be trying out buckwheat come this spring in Australia, along with amaranth, and corn for cornmeal, not technically a grain but you can make muffins and stuff out of it
Maize is really easy to grow in the right climate, and is one of the most productive and easiest grains to deal with as a home.gardener
We grow sunflower, millet and sorgum in our garden this to encourage wild life but also to attract bees.
The seed pods are also fantastic for flower arranging.
I'm loving my scarlet amaranth plants so far! Very elegant shape and gives a nice color to the garden
Thank you!
Nice take. I just harvested nettle, sunflower and dock seeds, my coriander seeds I will try to replant next year. We also have amaranth plants growing in our wild flower garden.
I like how you did this
Pumpkin microgreens are excellent too.
Can you buy any of these seeds from Amazon?

Had no idea love in the mist seeds were edible! Thanks
I was looking for information on growing rice, wheat, etc.
As a vegan, my main protein sources are beans and seeds so this was awesome to see. I planned my garden out before seeing this and looks like i made some good choices! Thanks for the video
Great video again…thank you
Can you eat any sunflowers seeds?
