I am wondering if this is what I have. I got one "head" from a plant in a garden in our community park and harvested the seeds already. I put some between wet paper towels and they germinated in 3 days! I have lots of seeds just off that one seed head. If purple magesty millet is what this is, I'd be happy to send seeds to anyone who is interested. Thanks.
purple majesty millet
........hmmmm.....Ok, I'll take a chance,if it turns out not to be purple it will still add structure to my garden.
....How do you want to do this? I have a few things on my trade list....
Thanks,

Well, moretz, it did take several sitting to clean the seeds! I just brought a tray in when I was watching TV and worked on them then. I kind of enjoyed the way they popped out of the little sections!
They are individual little round seeds now, but some of them have a little piece of the area in which they grew on them. But that didn't seem to interfere with germinatin though. Happy seed cleaning!
