One more surprise. I planted a Sesame flower seed in a large pot in the dirt garden and covered it with net. That was a month or more ago and I don’t remember if I planted one seed or more seed. That plant grew in spite of me and now it’s getting tall with lovely green healthy leaves. The thing is, there are two stalks coming out of the soil. I don’t know if that is one flower with two stalks or two flowers. If it keeps living, it will have long pods with sesame seeds to eat.

Johnny, I sent you some of those seeds. Did yours do anything?

Sesame seeds. They are a great source of Calcium aren’t they? I have never grown them, but IIRC, from my research earlier I might have to try it. Non dairy sources of calcium are always of interest to me for a more self sufficient diet.

The Sesame didn't come up. I saved enough to try next spring. Babysitting duty tonight.
