video Now those are what you call a scotch bonnet!

[MarcV]

That's good news then. I hope they make it overseas without damage...

Was there a value tag on the envelope (for customs)? Because if that is the case I'll have to pay taxes and handling costs...

Maybe (part of) this thread should be moved to "vendors"?

 

[JGBaxter59]

It was just a plain 6 inch envelope with my address, the return address, and a U.S. first class postage stamp.

 

[MarcV]

I should be safe then

 

[MarcV]

If we are going to grow these out, shouldn't we give this scotch bonnet a name, like the name of the farm? Or would we not be allowed to use that name? Any suggestions?

 

[JGBaxter59]

I think for simplicity I am going to call them Scotch Bonnet HSH (for Humble Servants Homestead). That way at least we know what we are talking about. If someone else has a better idea let us know.

 

[MarcV]

I was also thinking in the direction of an abbreviation, it's simpler/shorter and it's common practice... fine by me!

Just to follow up - Seeds arrived Sat 12/18 - five days after ordering. Not bad, especially this time of year. Just seeds in an envelope - no padding. Seeds don't look damaged though.

 

[MarcV]

Mine have to travel overseas... hope they will be ok...

 

[MarcV]

Got my seeds today also, in just 9 days time, sooner than expected!
Package was a bit different though, a proper bubble enverlope and some extra butternut squash seeds!

 

[Wiriwiri]

Glad your seeds were delivered safely Marc...hope they do well for you.

 

[JGBaxter59]

I'm happy you got your seeds okay. I'm looking forward to growing them with you this coming season.

 

[MarcV]

Wish it was time to start growing already!

 

[JGBaxter59]

I sowed a few seeds on 12/20 and look!

Damn, now I'm envious The Mexican P(h)ony Express has failed to deliver my seeds so far...

Not nice at all..been since '21...I think Marc got his real fast even though he is further away.

 

[MarcV]

I was already wondering if you guys already received your seeds...

 

[JGBaxter59]

That sucks that you haven't got your seeds yet. Were you charged for them?

 

[MarcV]

Couple of weeks later... did all the seeds arrive at their destination?

 

[ahayastani]

Mine haven't arrived yet but was charged. Things take 1 to 3 months to arrive here, and we've just passed the one-month mark.

 

[MarcV]

That really is a long time
