There are wayyy to many in there, whats the best way to harvested them, Kids? took me an hour or more to do one, just cutting chunks out and squeezing them out.

How many do you need? I only pulled them all once when I wanted to know how many seeds it contained. It was close to 1200 seeds.

Typically I take enough to spread the seeds around, and keep some for the collection.

I take chunks and push them through a screen.

Thanks Jake, I'll try that with the next one, I think I have some coarse screen kicking around.

You can ussually wash the small stuff through with a water hose also. Nice crosses BTW Pete

I wish I had tried that Jake. I spent about an hour and a half collecting the seeds from my 285 Edwards yesterday.
