I tries the tarragon seeds 2 different ways. Under a LED light and direct sow. Neither one germinated. I had no trouble getting all of my other deeds to germinate, so I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong
I tried these seeds in a small flower pot and in the garden but had no luck. Nothing sprouted.
I planted these in my seedling tray under an LED light I just purchased, and they sprouted within days! I am excited to cultivate my own Tarragon! I have never used an LED light, and I was concerned because it was a cheaper one, but these seedlings love it.

I bought these seeds to go in bundles of packets of vegetable seeds that I will put in the Blessing Box at a church here in town about late January so people who need to can supplement the groceries they buy with a garden. I'm sure they will love them. If my budget stretches that far, I will get some for myself and let you know how I like them. I still have eight bundles worth of packets of seeds to purchase for them first, though.
Appreciate that you have this in bulk quantities. We use this as a rooting hormone and as a potting mix and soil supplement. Kelp meal is rich in minerals and micro-nutrients and contains growth hormones that support healthy root growth.
Helps me keep the ants down on my property. Place outside and keeps ants down even in your house.
I grow flats of this for my pet pigs, because of the high nutritional content. They love it. I find them waiting at the growing location every afternoon waiting for their fave. I've grown beautiful flats of pea sprouts and alfalfa for them too, but they turn up their snouts and walk away.
