Mine are still siting in the postage package waiting for things to warm up. ;)
It's too bad your in such a hurry cause the stories I could tell you, Bushels and baskets of stories, hole crates full of stories. But if you can spare a moment I will tell you one story.

Michael,

I'd be very keen to get some JRP seeds, if you have any spare?

Billa,

Good to hear some of the JBP seeds that I sent out are growing, mine haven't popped yet but ongoing weeks of minus temps will do that!

Scott.

Scott!! I love them they are great and best of all....you have now proved yourself as a reliable seed seller!! You got any other seeds for sale?

Only one of my seeds have broken the tip of the soil but I got a bit impatient and dug out quite a few more seeds to see how they were going....everyone I checked had popped and started growing! I will have so many jbp seedlings soon!!

What got them going was heat. So you are not wrong there...I closed the breath holes on my seedling tub and a few hot days consecutively gave me my results!! My seeding tub (courtesy bunnings $8) looked like a sauna!!!
The only way to ensure the triumph of evil...is for good men to do nothing.

I still have some JRP seed that I did not plant, I was thinking of planting it all (50grams) but I have 4 trays of JBP and 4 trays of JRP.
Not sure If i'm going to have the room to grow them up so might sell some

How much were you after??
