Wow, that looks good..... (Insert emoticon w/ smiley face beating fork against the table here.)

Were you able to get seeds for next year from it?

I never thought about it. I haven't got to that point in my SFG journey. It make sense. Do I just let it dry out , then use it next year?

Rinse them good to get all the gook off, then dry on paper towels or a plate for a couple or 3 weeks. Then store with your other seeds in a cool, dark place.
