On a whim I bought some black locust seeds. I could have just collected pods from some of the big box store parking lots, but, risk being run over or maybe arrested for theft.
So, what's a good way to plant these buggers? Before the snow, I just scattered a few here and there around the edges of some clear(ish) areas that don't see much traffic. If they take, they take.
Figure a better idea is to choose some areas that might prove better suited to growth and eventual harvest. Not that I will be likely to benefit from that, being well into my 70's now.
Pretty sure these are black and not honey locust as the seeds are small, rice grain size. I think the honey locust are much larger, maybe black bean size.
