    Default Seed Saving Handbook

    I found this great book on how to save seeds - kind of like the encyclopedia for it. It is called Seed to Seed - Seed Saving & Growing Techniques for Vegetable Gardeners by Suzanne Ashworth. I got it on Amazon. I figure this will be critical knowledge.

    Thanks so much.
    This book is on my Christmas list but I didn't have any point of reference in regards to quality.
    Now I do.

    I checked the book out from the library - have not bought it. I wished the information was given in a more systematic way... some bits seemed to be lacking here and there which a simple chart would have solved.

    Have you read it, earthling?

    I have it, read it. It is very detailed. It is definitely the encyclopedia of seed saving.

    Yes I read it. I don't think there is anything out there that is as thorough as this is. It will really help. Next year I won't plant the zuchinni and summer squash next to each other.
