jledbetterI'll actually be in town this month but guessing no hours or such the last week of the year ;)21:50
pleia2there is one down in Santa Cruz on the 29th21:52
pleia2and the SF one will go on as scheduled (dec 8th)21:53
jledbetterGreat!21:58
seidosspeaking of SF, where can I buy some seeds for spinach, lettuce, and potatoes.  wait, potatoes i just need to bury a potato, right?22:34
seidosand some silliness for your viewing pleasure/!pleasure:  http://www.youtube.com/user/BalloonShop#p/u/81/xgLvHAKJJF022:34
akkI usually go to hardware stores like OSH, or Target, for plants, but seeds you can probably get even at Safeway or Walgreens.22:43
akkAnd yeah, I think for potatoes you can cut into sections and bury them (haven't tried it myself).22:44
seidosyeah, i couldn't find an OSH in san francisco.  i don't get what the whole so san francisco thing is.  anyway, i found something close:  http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&q=gardening&sll=37.782112,-122.480049&sspn=0.076655,0.154324&ie=UTF8&t=h&rq=1&ev=zi&radius=5.06&split=1&hq=gardening&hnear=&ll=37.783028,-122.484469&spn=0.019163,0.038581&z=15&iwloc=D22:48
seidoswhich was very surprising22:48
akkI remember when I worked in SF and it was impossible to buy hardware, and I kept having to drive to the south bay for auto parts.22:50
akkThere's probably a Target or similar at Serramonte.22:50
pleia2there are a few Ace hardware stores around here22:51
pleia2beyond that we tend to go to specialty stores, electric, lighting, etc (cater to contractors and individuals)22:51
akkI'm sure there are nurseries somewhere in SF, but you shouldn't need to find a specialty nursery just to buy seeds.22:52
akkOf course you can buy seeds online too.22:52
pleia2there is a fancy grocery store in the basement of the westfield that probably sells seeds too22:53
seidoswell, it's probably good to buy seeds at a nursery, support the mom and pop stores, instead of the faceless corporations22:55
seidosthey couldn't charge that much more, could they?22:55
akkSeeds are fairly cheap even from an expensive nursery.22:56
seidosyeah, i would think22:57
akk$4-5/bag maybe from an expensive place, $2 from a place like a supermarket.22:57
seidosso hey, if you guys are bored, you can look up your <ominous-echo>mayan horoscope</ominous-echo>:  http://13moon.com/decoder.htm22:58

iheartubuntusomeone said seeds?23:40
iheartubuntuseidos... i recommend baker creek seeds. they are well known back east and i think they opened up a flagship store somewhere near you... peteluma?23:42
iheartubuntuhttp://rareseeds.com/23:42
iheartubuntuhttp://rareseeds.com/petaluma-seed-bank/23:42
iheartubuntumight make for a fun excursion23:43
iheartubuntuim sure they have garlic bulbs and potato "seeds"23:43
iheartubuntuthe potatos in the store have been treated and most likely wont grow.23:43
iheartubuntualthough if you get some organic potatos from whole foods or similar store you might have luck if they werent treated23:44
iheartubuntupotatoes23:44
iheartubuntu:)23:44
iheartubuntuI would also like to recommend Freedom Seeds down here in Pasadena. http://freedomseeds.org/23:45
iheartubuntuA small family that grows their own crops (6000 lbs a year) at their home is also now selling heirloom and open pollinated seeds23:46
iheartubuntuAll of the seeds Ive bought from both companies have done very well.23:46
iheartubuntuThere is also PLENTY of free seeds all over the internet if you "dig" around. lots of seed exchanges. I found one lady up in canada who grows strickly russian varieties of tomatoes... and she sent me some seeds.23:49
iheartubuntuim looking through my links now for some free seed sites23:49
pleia2that's pretty cool23:50
iheartubuntuhttp://www.seedsofchange.com/ guarantees their seeds to be organic since they grow and collect the seeds themselves (as does freedom seeds)23:51
iheartubuntuIf you dont have a lot of space, consider square foot gardening.. http://www.squarefootgardening.com/23:54
* MarkDude has the cape goosberry seeds that are almost ready23:57
iheartubuntufree tomato seeds here (SASE) ... http://wintersown.org/wseo1/YourChoiceTomatoSASE.html23:59
