Hi Judy and all,
I would be very interested to hear about your preferred method of nicking
seeds. I've tried various methods myself, including just *clipping* the
corner of a Morning glory seed with the scissors, to using a fine-pointed
Exacto knife (no exact science, I can tell you! :>) Any tips you could
share?
Thanks in advance,
C. Carter (avid seed hound)
