After seeing this thread I had a look in my local Wyevale garden centre and purchased a pack for £1.99 this afternoon. They have now been sown in a deep pot in my greenhouse! Fingers crossed!

Mmmm - we've got one just down the road, best have a look there first!

Well, if anyone cared to read my post you have probably a plenty of suitable seed in your cupboard for free. Seems a waste of time to post really.

We read it, gobs, well I did anyway, but if people want to try a new variety - why try to stop them?

Absolutely no reason, would be silly really.

I read it too, but as I have had no success with carrots I would like to try something new.

Well a girl needs to have ambition.

On the serious though, as I decided I'm old enough not to court anybody if not desparate:

1 - try anything

but if you don't wanna spend it's nice to know anything already in your cupboard will do all the same

2 - try anything

it's unlikely a variety gonna solve your carrot growing problems

No way I wanna do that, quite the contrary, want to widen their options.

I think I'm lightened up, Ice, I have plenty years of growing autumn carrot behind me. Or does that make me old -fashioned? :shock:

None at Brookside Dave, they stock them but are out of stock .

I've got a dozen packets from our local Wyevale, so it's only going to be the cost of the seed £1.99 + 36p for a 1st class stamp.

I'll PM everyone for details.

There are 11 people wanting them, so have one packet spare. Any takers! First come, first served.
