Hi All,

I was looking at a packet of carrot seeds. They are very
tiny. How do you plant them without special vision equipment?

Many thanks,

Do they ever sell (tiny) seeds on a tape?

It's a lot less expensive to buy carrots at the stupidmarket.


The carrots in the supermarket taste like the cardboard they
are shipped in! They are bread to lie flat.


What horse shit... and it's *bred*, and plants are not bred, you
imbecile.


Isn't it strange how your anecdotes are gospel but those from others are
horseshit. Any experience contrary to your preconceived dogma simply cannot
be true, Todd must be lying just to annoy you.

You only show how mean and desperate you are when you reach for the spelling
flame.

On the topic of correct use of "bred" it is very common usage with respect
to plants (3million plus hits for "plant breeding" on google) and a handful
of reputable dictionaries accept it in reference to plants too. See also

So this looks like 0/3. Your abysmal manners might be more tolerable if you
actually knew something.
