What to do with seeds?!
« on: April 05, 2010, 18:51 »
This may me a silly question but I have sown a number of seeds, ie Cauliflower Brussels, Toms etc and they are now all about 2inchs high so I am moving them into bigger pots, however there is about 50 of each!! What do people do just pick the best ones to move on or do I need to pot all 50 as only some will survive?

Are you going to eat fifty of them in a short period? Flatulence will be rife in your home!

I think you overdid it a little. Think about how many you will seriously eat and successional plantings and sell the remainder at a fete or car boot sale or something.

Your enthusiasm is admirable, but needs to be tempered by your needs.

I did something similar several years ago - i planted self-saved lupin seeds, and every seed must have taken, as I ended up with about 100 lupins. I decided to pot them all on, and then used them to plant swap with friends and work colleagues. Great way to try different plants/vegetables you might not have thought of growing.
