More about our Complete Garden Kits:


We sell seeds by weight, by packets with specific seed count, and by Complete Garden Kits.  Regarding the space requirements:  We treat this just as 'MINIMUM REQUIRED'.  Our recommendations for plant spacing can be found by following each of the variety links above.  These recommendations are based on hand cultivation, walking between rows and hoeing.  If you use machines such as tiller or tractor, you will need to calculate your own row and plant spacing.  If you buy seeds based on ground space that can be filled, do not be surprised if the seller hermetically sealed enough seeds to drive a truck between the rows.  We will be glad to help with these calculations, send your queries by email.  Our #K5 Garden Kit will take approximately an acre of ground for all of the seeds, using space very conservatively.  We like to recommend, as the most secure approach, that half of the seeds be used for a season's planting, and half be retained as contingency for harvest failure (be prepared is our motto).  Thus one of the reasons that we use resealable cans: you do not have to commit to planting all of the seeds in the kit just because you wanted to open the can once.   Another advantage to the resealable can is being able to check stock at any time, including initial cache.  And mainly to be able to check for viability at a future date.  For example, if a kit has been stored for 10 years, and you wish to store longer, you can open the can in a cool, low humid environment and remove samples of each seed lot in the can.  Reseal, and test the seeds for germination.  A seed needs a minimum moisture level to remain viable, and we suspect that a vacuum may not be best for long term storage.  We take a cue from what we have seen of seeds that were propagated after ages in American caves and African silos.  Some seeds will retain viability longer than others.  For more about relative germination of different vegetable varieties see: Seed VIABILITY - LONGEVITY  On the outside label of the storage container is the harvest/pack date and a list of items inside. On the inside each seed variety is labeled with description and planting instructions.
