Default Saving Seed?


"Steve Harris" wrote in message

Looking at my veg patch, I notice that some individual plants seem to be
performing much better than others - by a factor of at least 50%.
Should I allow a few of these "good" plants to run to seed and save it
for next year?

In particular, I'm looking at radish broad beans and peas


I always used to save seeds from any non hybrid beans or peas (after all
they run to seed before you crop them?) and it was fairly successful but
you need to be very careful with storage conditions.
