Seed Saving: The Money Saving Garden Hack that Keeps on Giving

🌼🌸 Seed Saving Hack! 🌸🌼

Why buy seeds every year when you can easily harvest and store your own from marigolds and zinnias? 🌱 Here’s a quick guide:

1️⃣ Pick the flower pods straight from your plants.

2️⃣ Gently pull them apart, separate the seeds, and lay them on a paper. Let them air dry.

3️⃣ Once dried, store them in a labeled paper envelope to keep them dry.

4️⃣ Come next year, plant those zillions of seeds you’ve saved, and enjoy a garden bursting with blooms! 🌺

5️⃣ Keep the cycle going! Repeat, repeat, and repeat!

Say goodbye to spending $3-$5 on a seed packet! Nature’s got you covered! 🌿🌼
