Do 5 - Grow a plant from seeds you’ve saved - PEA BB garden.sand.five.growseed

This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEA curriculum. Completing this BB is part of getting the sand badge in Gardening.

What’s the point in saving those seeds if you aren’t going to use them? Go ahead and test out how well you preserved them and what sort of germination rates you get. You might even end up with a plant you really love! While it’s not a field, hugelbed, or orchard, it will at least ensure you have the direct experience and satisfaction of growing seeds you yourself saved.

To complete this BB, the minimum requirements are:
Must plant seeds that you yourself have saved.
Do not use plastic, cement, porous terracotta, or styrofoam pots.
Plant it using any method that is organic or better.
Completed when true leaves have appeared.





To document and become certified for this BB provide photos or video (less than 2 minutes) showing the following:
- Explain what seed you’ve chosen to save and grow.
- Show the seeds and potting materials
- Action shot of yourself potting the seeds
- Show the seeds sprouted to the point where the true leaves first appear.
