Well I bought these in bulk and got lots spare.

Bought 500 and can only sow 30 a year max 

Apparently it's a lovely corn - supersweet and tender too. I can't verify, growing them for the first time myself this season. But via the chitting method I've had 100% germination, so seed is good.

If anyone would like to try some please pm

(I don't want anything in return)

Moles by any chance?

Thanks for the offer, but I've only just finished the packet of the same variety I bought 2 years ago!

They will keep a few years & if you use the chitting technique you're not wasting compost, but yes, I gave a lot of mine away, but still cost-effective compared to buying packets of 30.

Hi IWAA, I would love some of your sweetcorn seeds please!  Will happily pay postage, are you sure you don't want anything in return?

I thought I had enough sweetcorn, but when I looked there were only 10 seeds left in my packet.  Will PM you with my addy!      Many thanks      Ann

Yes DD, they were Moles 

And yes, I paid less for 500 seeds from Moles than I'd been paying for 20 (identical seeds) on eBay!

So plenty for me, and plenty to share.

Grannie I've PM'd, and no I don't want anything for them (but thanks for offering  )

[GrannieAnnie]

Sorted!!!!! lol

Not sure if they will work up here, even in in my sheltered garden, most people would consider it a windy place, but worth a go, again more than happy to pay postage.


PM on it's way.

Hello,

I've been using this website for a few months now since getting an allotment, but this is the first posting I've placed. I would be interested in some corn seeds, may I pay for the postage and offer something else instead?

Best, Undala

Hello Undala, and welcome! I'm glad my corn seeds tempted you out of hiding 

Please PM me your name/address (click on the squiggly green thing to the left of this box) & they'll be in the post to you on Monday.

Please don't put your address up here on the public forum

Just one point to note re postage. Since the Royal Mail re-structured their pricing, the thickest letter you can send with a normal stamp is 5mm. Sweetcorn may be borderline.

You may need a "large letter" stamp - 61p to cover this, just double check before sending out, as the recipient has to pay the excess plus £1.

[iwantanallotment]

I know DD, from when I sent the beans out last month.
My post office checks all this for me when posting luckily, so I just leave it to them.

But thank you for reminding 

[JulesJ]

Good reminder - I just had to go to the post office and pay an extra £1.08 for an envelope containing an SAE someone sent me for seeds to post on.

[scabs]

I'd very much like a few to try if there are any left? Is there anyhing you are looking for in terms of swaps - I may have something in my seed box?

Will PM you.

[iwantanallotment]

Have PM'd back scabs, you got the last lot 

I'm very sorry but these are all gone now, I have only enough left for myself for next season.

Everyone who has asked, they'll be in tomorrow's post 

[scabs]

Thanks again!

So you're the one
I have just ben sent a substitute of Lark F1 because my supplier says there is a national shortage of Swift F1.
Still good of you to offer and whilst I am fixed up now I will note that a lot of people (incl DD) think Moles are good for seeds and will look at them next time
