Quoted By:
There is a campaign by special people to deride anything from Baker Creek. The company has basically stated they want to preserve history and the heritage of seeds. Their collaboration with Clive Bundy was about an ancient watermelon variety that was grown by Natives. Then we get the special people always stir the pot by adding racism, and cultural appropriation.
Note that the OP is a 1-year experienced gardener. Doesn't specify the germination rates nor showed a fair comparison of what is going on. The picture of the seed packets are of seeds that I would not say are easy like a sunflower. These are seeds that are hit or miss from ANY company if you don't know how to properly sow them.
All of the seeds I bought from Baker Creek have sprouted. Just trying to give a fair voice for this company because special people are tearing them down.
