Free Seeds

Well, not really "free" because you pay for the product, the seeds are just an extra bonus.

When buying produce from a local grocery store, do not buy "Seedless" products. Most of those are hybrid and will not reproduce.

Instead of "seedless" buy the regular produce with the seeds. Examples include all types of melons - water melons and cantaloupe. When cutting the melon open, harvest the seeds, dry them for a few days and then store in the freezer.

Keep a couple of seeds out of the freezer, place them between 2 wet towels. In a few days the seeds should sprout. If the seeds have not sprouted within 5 or 7 days, throw them away along with any other seeds that were harvested from that same melon.

Sometimes this same thing can be done with peppers. Buy the pepper, let it dry for a couple of weeks and then harvest the seeds. Keep the peppers in a dry place where mold is less likely to grow.
