very satisfied!

They haven’t sprouted yet, but they all came intact and together, with a little extra buddy too. Thanks so much for these awesome seeds, we wish you the best in your break!

poor peanut

I have been growing peanuts for 35 years, and always been successful.
I have had only 155 germination, so it is very disappointing.

Dissapointing results

Planted the peanuts interspaced with corn seeds. Only a few corn and no peanut seedlings emerged. Some were eaten by bandicoots. Only about 50% of the leftover corn seeds eventually germinated when planted individually in tube stocks in a protected environment .
