Default Seed Mix Up

'Roger Tonkin[_2_ Wrote:
;1002899']Oh dear, somehow I put two of the unmarked little packets of
seeds back into one packet. I know the seeds are January King
Cabbage and Curly Kale, but how to identify which is which?

Only obvios difference is that one lot is very dark and
consistently so, where as the other has several lighter brown
seeds in it and is generally more inconsistent in colour.

Can any one give guidance, or should I just dump them all and
start again next year?

Thanks

Hi, Kale seeds are normally really dark as cabbage are a palish brown,
hope this helps.


Thanks Jay, that is a help, as I need to sow more Cabbage, but
have plenty of Kale plants, no time to experiment!
