Cranking but not to worry just inside.

Thats not an addiction! $33/year for seeds. Fresh grocery money!

Try mine. 75 packages for $175. SEEEEEEDSSSSS YESSSSS!

I will have: 120 tomato plants, 2000 stalks of sweet corn, 4000 stalks
of dent corn (500 ft away from the sweet). 25 celery, 25 broccoli, 50
pickling cucumbers, 25 pepper plants, 200 green been plants, 25 cooking
pumpkins, 200 garden peas, dozen varieties of leaf lettuces... and one
squash plant! Lots of good COOKING and canning this fall. None for sale,
all just for me, the dog, chickens and a cow

Also,
25 zinnias, 50 salvias, 200 marigolds, 50 wave petunias, 50 petunias, 50
coleuses, 200 Impatiens... All for my yard.

Not Bad for just $175 for seeds. Many people will pay more than that for
just a few plants at the nursery. Well I did give my Mom 3 hanging
baskets of wave petunias for Mothers Day. If you had to buy them, $45
just for the 3 baskets. I will take the time and grow my own plants.

Once I learn to seed save I will reduce my seed spending addiction.

Your reply suggests singular. Families can be divided head count.
Why bother if it only you ?

Dan, you're treading close to ostentation and hubris;O)

GUILTY! of being close - but not yet there.

ostentation - pretentious and vulgar display, esp. of wealth and
luxury, intended to impress or attract notice.

To a starving unemployed person on the street - Guilty
To the average person who can access this NewsGroup - Not Guilty!

I am not rich by any means. One can own a home in the country with
acreage for the same cost as a home in the city. This is a personal
choice. Many prefer the city, 20 minutes to mow the lawn in the city.
Two hours to mow the lawn in the country. City taxes are higher in the
city and tend to uses less gasoline. Country taxes are lower but tend to
uses more gasoline. Those that choose life in the city have tiny
gardens. Those that live in country can have huge gardens.
A choice in life. I hate the city life. I hate having neighbors. Many
people love the city life. I live the life of a hermit!

hubris - excessive pride or self-confidence.

Self-confidence - Guilty in some areas of life. Other areas not so
self-confident. Self-confidence comes with time and expertise.
Pride - Not Me I do not feel that I am any better that any other person.

I live the life of a hermit! I like it that way!
How many hermits display a life of great wealth?

However, I am lottery ticket addict. I spend one dollar each week on the
powerball. I have a gambling addiction! What to do

So...
Does this qualify you for being an official hoarder?
I mean seriously...
Do you have that much land or time?
Seems stupid to me.
But that's just me.

Knock yourself out...

We live in the country too. The town we live outside of has a
population of about 4-5000 people. When we moved here 6 years ago we
bought a house on 1+ acre of land. The two acres behind us became
available and we bought them. Now the DH says if we need more room
for planting he will hitch the tiller to the tractor and make more
space.

This spring I have set out 55 tomato plants, 21 varieties. I also
have 6 more to set out. I bought those seeds late. I like to try
new ones and see if we like any of them better than the usual ones we
eat. I will set out about 25 peppers soon. I also have some
cucumbers, acorn, butternut, green and yellow squashes and watermelon
starting to sprout in a tray. The cabbage and broccoli are getting
close to ready and I am already pulling beets. The lettuces will soon
be going to seed if I don't eat them soon. The Pak choi Choi is about
gone and the kohlrabi & cabbage that DH bought from Lowe's are ready.
The permanent plantings include strawberries, rhubarb (which I started
from seed last year) and asparagus. We also have 25 fruit trees,
muscadine grapes, blueberries and wild blackberries. That is enough
to keep me busy during the summer.

I have 3 apple trees, 3 blueberries and 20 strawberry plants. It is more
than enough for me. Grapes, raspberries are in the future.

As for the lettuces: first comes the leaf lettuces, then the head
lettuces. When the leaf lettuces expire I usually plant pumpkins in
their place. I do replace the spinach plants though.

I am not affluent by any means. One can own a home in the country with acreage for the aforementioned amount as a home in the city. This is a personal choice. Many adopt the city, 20 account to mow the backyard in the city. Two hours to mow the backyard in the country. City-limits taxes are college in the city and tend to uses beneath gasoline. Country taxes are lower but tend to uses added gasoline.
