Brian,
Lol....
I will take a pic again when the others are ready and picked. Probably be a while as they are ready at different times.....I might have given all of them away by then (except from my years supply) ;o)))

Seeds - just soak them a little to hydrate them and sow (in spring here). You can probably do it anytime you want there.
Sponges - pick when ready (usually when they turn yellow), peel off skin, let dry in the sun. Give them a good rinse and enjoy.

Thank you so much for the information! It sounds so easy.
I just saved this to my favorites so I have all the information in the future.

Delonix,
It is that easy. The first year I didn't even soak the seeds, just sowed them and voila.
Post pics when your plant is growing. ;o)

A lot of people are starting to grow their own food...
My hubby always has a nice size summer veggie garden. I'm thinking about adding more types of veggies this year.
