Seeds are up

I've not grown them before, think I've read that germination can be erratic. They have been in the fridge for 2 weeks then inside for another 2, now they are outside in my coldframes.........I'm going to leave them there to see what happens, be good to know what happens with your new seeds.

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquistion

I'm not really expecting the light bulb to do that much cairnsie,just experimenting and having a bit of fun, but sounds like you do know what you're doing

Sounds like you've been very busy Sam. Still no luck with the verbena seeds for me, will leave them alone as things can pop unexpectedly.

I accquired a couple of teasel heads a few weeks ago, might just try and put some in some soil to see what happens...........last place I saw them was in my car

GG, it's just the running of them doesn't have anything to do with the BBC.

Sweet Potatoes

I love sweet potatoes, don't know anything about growing them though. I'm starting for the first time with maris pipers. I would be interested in how to grow them

Paper pots versus what?

You could get a lot of the narrow seed trays in a 2 foot square propagator. Sorry if I don't get what you mean

Hi Derek, it's run by the Gardeners World franchise,who ever they might be. That is why there are adverts and commercial offers on here. Something that you would never get on a BBC site. The only link to the BBC I can see is the that happen to air the programme with the same name.

It might be that they prefer to get advice off real people rather than one size fits all in the "how to" section. Any gardening advice is dependant on where you live as there are big differences in climate in this country.
