will safflower seeds work

Some of the smaller seeds will fall through but it just ends up on the ledge and the birds are happy being able to get to the seeds on the edge.

As to your question asking about safflower seeds.....I don't know why they wouldn't. My black oil sunflower seedswork just great and I'm pretty sure the safflower seeds aren't bigger that those. Compare the two. I have lots ofbirds at the two feeders I bought and I just love watching them !! Thanks for asking....

No, the squirrels don't eat safflower seeds, but then I've never had any birds eat safflower seed either.

First you need Carolina reaper seeds. Not habanero which these are. They are not true reaper seeds.

Most definitely. I bought this feeder specifically for safflower and watched four mourning doves perch on the ledge. There

You can grow saffron in about any climate. Plant the bulbs (technically they're corms) in the summer, harvest the stigmas in the fall, and if you get around to it, divide the plants every four years or so.

Unfortunatly, no. The seeds are the size of a pin tip and impossible to work with.

sorry, I cannot answer that as I have not had any luck with these seeds, it was an incredibly disappointing year with many seeds I tried and I followed the directions exactly. And the ones that did germinate didn't mature :-( I would recommend getting starters from a local nursery, make sure you have both male and female and expect to wait up to seven years to get flowers and maybe longer for fruit. Best of Luck with your garden! Keep trying!

I haven't tried this batch but any dried seed should sprout by the usual methods. Bob's Red Mill is of excellent quality and I am sure they will sprout.

Just bought seeds this year to try in SW Va. Thought the grow chart said yes. They look neat hope they grow

This is my second season using the seeds I ordered from the same source as you have. I had no problem getting the first batch to come up in Spring of 2014 and I just used the last of the seeds for new baby Comphrey's two weeks ago and they still came up under a grow light using regular seed sprouter soil. Sorry to hear that yours are not performing for you. But I was quite impressed with the company and will be ordering varieties from the same company for next Spring.

i have tried a lot of different seed. 1. sunflower words well but makes makes mess as does golden safflower seed or niger seed. 2. with inexpensive seed mix there is a lot of millet which many birds ignore so the feed tray will fill up with seed and shell no one eats. 3. I use something called meaties. it costs s little more ususally but birds like it and less mess.

It will work with any seed or fertilizer. It has a lever that you can set to any seed size setting you need, also you can shut the flow of any seed or fertilizer completely off if you need to. I used mine with zero issues!

Chris...I never received the seeds so I would not recommend that you buy them from the vendor (SeedsDirect). Good luck finding another source. Peppers in general are fairly slow to germinate (bottom heat helps) and as plants, the more heat the better (full sun). Fertilize well and don't overwater and you will be richly rewarded. Good luck.

Probably not. The seeds we got were hard, old, and when they finally sprouted, VERY moldy. We tried it twice to see if it was just one batch. Both were covered with mold (and since we live in Southern Arizona, mold isn't something you see every day). I'd find your seed elsewhere. I've been buying from a wonderful place in San Francisco called Sprout People. Take a look at their website.

I use the pellets from the Breeze system. I would assume the songbird safflower seeds would work just fine, but I haven't tried the seeds at all.

Most summer squash seeds work very well with the cucumber plate, PN 1002-26, that comes in the optional plate kit. If you have any varieties that are too large, I would recommend you try the seed corn plate which comes standard with the planter. It has slightly closer spacing than the cucumber plate, and may require more thinning.

I did not have any luck at all with the seeds, but, my plants that I bought are triple the size as when I planted them. Good luck.

I don't see why they wouldn't work for seed starting. What type of seeds are you attempting to grow? Typically plants in net pots either need lots of air at the roots such as orchids or are growing hydroponically with no soil.
