Seeds to give

[bbetv]

I have bunches of achocha (caigua) seeds grown in my garden as well as mixed sunflowers and mixed squash and some others that I would like to swap or give away. I don't want these to go to waste. So if someone would like them, we could do a SASE thing or another arrangement ( I am in Ottawa/Montreal area). I am interested in edible or forgotten crops as well as conservatory edibles. Cheers!

Hi ,just read alittle on the achocha seeds, If i read the right one they are like a green pepper taste and you would use it like a green pepper,grows on a vine. Is this what you have. If so 1 would love to try some ,I don't have anything to offer as of yet,as i have just ordered from Richters and the seeds are not in, but I could send you a sase,if that would interest you. Not sure how to go about the cost,want to make sure there is sufficient postage. I would think a reg. stamp would suffice ,if you 4-5 seeds. Let me know what you think and you can email me with your address so I can mail you an envelope. My email is [e-mail]
any growing info would be appreciated , Happy Gardening Karen

Karen,

Here is a thread that I started on Homegrown Goodness about achocha:

It appears that 2 plants is sufficient for a family. PM your address and I'll gladly send you 4-5 seeds to ascertain 2 plants, if you still need them.
