Average Customer Ratings:
Seed to Seed is a complete seed-saving guide that describes specific techniques for saving the seeds of 160 different vegetables. This book contains detailed information about each vegetable, including its botanical classification, flower structure and means of pollination, required population size, isolation distance, techniques for caging or hand-pollination, and also the proper methods for harvesting, drying, cleaning, and storing the seeds. Seed to Seed is widely acknowledged as the best guide available for home gardeners to learn effective ways to produce and store seeds on a small scale. The author has grown seed crops of every vegetable featured in the book, and has thoroughly researched and tested all of the techniques she recommends for the home garden. This newly updated and greatly expanded Second Edition includes additional information about how to start each vegetable from seed, which has turned the book into a complete growing guide. Local knowledge about seed starting techniques for each vegetable has been shared by expert gardeners from seven regions of the United States-Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast/Gulf Coast, Midwest, Southwest, Central West Coast, and Northwest.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
Excellent reference -
Well organized book with complete detailed information on plant varieties and growing and seed harvesting techniques for each. Well written and easy to understand. Other references I had just told how far to separate corn/beans/lettuce/etc. to keep seed purity, this book explains work-arounds so the average gardener can save pure seed without having to plant their crops 1/2 mile away from any others. Some black and white pictures throughout. Could use more, but the ones there are very informative to explain polination and harvest procedures and plant differences. Worth the buy if you're looking at growing/harvesting non-hybrids or heirloom seeds.

If only there was more... - 
I *love* this book. It is very elaborate and informative. There is not a sentence that is superfluous or extraneaous. From the first to last word, it has filled in many gaps and covered things I had never heard in years of researching other sources.
It was very clearly written and organized, unlike some books out there that leave you searching through pages of unrelated information to piece together what you need. If only I could find a troubleshooting book that does the same.
The only thing I was disappointed over was that it didn't cover more than vegetables, such as strawberries or herbs. I hope to see the author writing another book in the future and including more seeds.
Seeds wonderful seeds -
Awesome book, so much great information. It inspires me to grow beans! Very well done!
Easy to Understand -
I was worried that I wouldn't quite understand the information presented in this book the first time through. I worried unnecessarily. It's a well written and easy-to-understand guide to saving seeds.
