A Kernel of Wisdom

A nugget of traditional elder seed-saving wisdom from John Leopard of Jackson County, NC. Typically, it's best to not plant end kernals--unless you have a small amount of seed to start with (Like the last existing ear of Hamburg corn he rescued in 1978. He was careful to note that he even planted the end kernels then!) End kernels often lack the vigor of the straighter, interior seeds. #seedsaving #seedstewards
