Don't know if that's what they call them but I have been looking for a small 5" ish sieve for sieving compost on top of seeds but can't seem to find one anywhere. Does anyone know where I might find one please.

garden sieve, potting sieve or a riddle if that helps.

Can't see a small one either but there are lots available on fleabay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/bhp/garden-sieve

I tried that but the soil took ages to go through lol

I will have a a look in wilkos and search fleabag again.

Thank you

Cheaper at Wilkinsons than ebay as you get two small plastic tools and seed planter and a small plastic sieve.

I have that one but could not remember where I got it from, the seive is a really good size, and dthe other bits come in handy too.

Wilkinsons for under £3  or that one at £40    I know which one I would go for

for finer stuff I use the top section of an old steamer, with about 3mm holes (1/8") works well as long as the soil is fairly dry.

You could try second hand shops/ car boots for an old one like that.

I was thinking the same. We are off to Cornwall in 2 weeks so will scout all the shops then good excuse to go shopping

I use the mesh front from an old electric fan or a maggot riddle for really fine compost.
If you have a decent fishing tackle shop nearby it may be worth a look.
