Me too! I grow scarlet nantes here, they’re short but so good!i let one cucumber go last year just so i could have seeds, tried them down here, planted six seeds and six plants came up, they're at the stage that i had to transplant them, now will have to trellis them, have to admit, makes me happy that i did it right
i might try carrots this year (for seeds), if i can just let a big one go, thats hard for me, love them in a salad or roast
