If folks will buy a pet rock there is somebody out there that will buy almost anything. I like it, sort of like a fortune cookie in a can lol.
nice idea... but looking at the can it must be a tiny can like stack of few quarters.

So Jackie what kind of seed do you think that is?
I wonder .....Pumpkin seeds?
What other large seeds are there that might work and have a quick germination?
This one just popped in to my thoughts... any one try popcorn yet?
Have a Blessed day,

These particular ones are "jack beans" (I guess beans are seeds). But I'm gonna try it with kidney beans (I have a bag in my pantry). I know the schools use kidney beans for showing kids how plants germinate and grow.
see here:
Easy Science Projects
Observing plants, simple chemical reactions or a bubble mystery are all easy science projects that will help kids grow in their appreciation of science and scientific principles.

Bean Sprouts
To grow bean sprouts you will need:
- A few beans. . .any type of dried bean will be fine, but kidney beans are preferable
- Moistened paper towel
- Baby food jar or other clear, small jar
What to do:
Completely soak the paper towel, and fold it so that it is the same height or a little smaller than the height of the jar. Wrap the wet paper towel around the inside of the jar. Insert one or two beans in between the jar and the paper towel.
What should happen:
One of the great things about this experiment is that the bean will sprout roots rather quickly; therefore, it’s a great introduction to plants for younger children. One thing to notice is which way the roots sprout.
It should work this way or in soil.

It should work with any kind of bean! The part you laser is the part that rises up when the root starts to grow. It sheds off as the leaves form..

I like the bean idea.

George Carlin said it best:
"If you take two things that have never been glued together before and glue them together, some schmuck will buy it."
I guess that's a variation on the "sucker born every minute" theme.
