Looking for special varieties of watermelon such as.....

Giant
Striped
Seedless
Cool color variations (except yellow and red)

Also looking for cantaloupe and honeydew seeds, I loooovvveee honeydew. :)

In exchange, I have some carnivorous plant seeds. I have drosera Capensis and Darlingtonia Californica. These will be needed to be planted on nutrient free peat moss, don't use the miracle grow kind. Don't ever give them any nutrients and they'll be good to go. :)

    This is for Itzy....

    Carnivorous plants are very interesting and easy to grow if you just follow some easy tips.

    1. Don't ever fertilize them.
    2. Use soil that has no nutrients or minerals in it like peat moss (not the miracle grow kind, it has fertilizer in it.)
    3. Full sun is best. They like light and lots of it.
    4. Keep the soil wet at all times, use the tray method and keep it filled at all times
    5. Use distilled or rain water, tap water is very bad for em.

    Other than that, you're good to go!
    If you need any additional info, this is a good site:

    Good luck!

    I've got lots of melons that aren't on my list. (I thought I'd updated it!)

    The one I'm most excited about this year is the Collective Farm Woman melon. Its from a collective farm in Ukraine. I think Baker Creek has more information about it. The seed I have is pretty old and I'm not sure how many I have. ....Consider this post a placeholder while I try to get my information together.

    Here is a link that might be useful: Baker Creek's link to CFW Melon
