todays trip to the card shop.

Got rained out cutting grass today. visited the local shop and bought 9 packs of 2011 A&G and 2 singles. i got a 2007 masterpieces light blue border Mike Piazza #ed 40/50, and a UD USA Baseball Jersey card of Bryce Harper for (got the harper for 8 bucks!)

the Ginter has a few SPs, Pujols base, Mantle base, Blake DeWitt & Jayson Werth relics, Cano A&G back mini, Placido Polanco Black border mini, and a Black Eyed Susan mini that you can supposedly plant.....weird.

How the cards are made and if they actually work or not.

I am sure Topps tested them to make sure they worked beforehand.

its not a new technology. its been done for several years. ive seen it in greeting cards. i would imagine that they simply add some seeds to the pulp and dry it between 2 screens,
