Title: ordering seed for 2022
Post by: rowlandwells on August 12, 2021, 07:47

as things seem to be getting back to some sort of normal there shouldn't be a problem for seed orders as it was this year should it?

so I've been ordering some seeds in prep for next season well things are a bit quiet together with the allotments society catalogue because if we do get back into another lock down it could once again hold up seed orders

possibly a little presumptuous of me  :nowink:

I ordered quite a lot of mine, yesterday, with a money off voucher from one of my usual suppliers  :)

I've been thinking of doing that too as they may well be the same ones in stock for sending out next year so may as well get my dibs in  should there be another lock down or resulting problem in 2022.

I've just had a look at Seeds Direct website and rather like the fact that they're quite a bit cheaper because you get them in a plain packet not one with pics and planting guides etc, plus there are fewer seeds per packet which is good as you're not paying for loads when you only want enough for the season and some spare for the next year. They have some interesting varieties of spring onions and toms to name but two, so OH and I will get our heads together and get them ordered.
