Online usually works. ;)

Here's one site, but there are many:

https://www.uline.com/Grp_5/Poly-Bags-Reclosable?pricode=WG383&gclid=CKGQx5SZg64CFcUZQgody0pe4w

If you don't want to buy them online, see if there's a place in your area that sells jewelry findings. Call first to see if they have the little bags for sale. :)

If the seed packets look like a kid wrote the names of the seeds on it, that's because a kid did. My seven year old helped with writing the names of the seeds. :lol:

That's funny, huh. You kid wrote them and here I was thinking "he's got the same handwriting as me. :oops:

I got them yestarday. I was not happy at all. Not with you though. :P The mailman left my door open just a bit. There was snow on it so guess what. I look in and you bet ya the envelope with the seeds is on the bottom in a pool of water. -wall- -helpsos- . But luckily the half with seeds in it was out of the water. So all is good, whoooo!

That was a close one, really, only one of the packets had but just a little water on one teen tiny corner.

Thanks Roger.

I get them at local craft stores. Online works as well like Kisal said. They are way cheaper and lay flatter in envelopes.

Anyone's HG Giveaway tomatoes sprouted yet? Mine have been planted 6 days and are not showing yet. I know that's not a whole lot of time, but the commercial hybrid tomatoes I planted at the same time have been up for 3 days already, which has been my typical experience with tomatoes. I haven't done heirloom tomatoes before. Are they usually slower to germinate?

I wrote that from work, having checked my tomatoes in the AM before I went to work. By the time I got home from work in the evening, they had popped out! :) 7th day. All's well with the world!

Awesome. :)

I still have some left but it's probably too late to plant. I'll do another giveaway at the end of the year. ;)
