And maybe a bit too early!!      

Mrs. Digger moans about the seed trays & pots in the house, but it's always 'our produce' when it comes to passing the excess on. I suppose I have to be happy that she doesn't claim it to be all her own work!

errr yeah I have so many seeds this year, so decided to start some early... now I have 100's of damn seedings :LOL:

Glad it's not just me that planted too many tom seeds.  I am new to this game, hubby built new raised bed for me bert day and in my enthusiasm I planted some Tom seeds.  Must have been a brain dead day cos I now have 25 of Gardeners delight and 25 Marmande all sprouting and waiting to come out of their 3" pots.  I hate to throw any away.  Put some in the raised bed last week with half a cola bottle on them and they seem to be fine................but I haven't got room for the rest or enough pots.  Unluckily for me none of the grown kids like toms either.  I really didn't think they would all come up but looks like the heated south facing conservatory is fantastic for germinating seeds.  Only been here two years almost so not used to Sunny Bognor and a conservatory.

if your on a road  then sell em from the front gate . 65p is the going rate at the start of the year then .you decide hat ur charging it helps pay for seeds and compost  

[sclarke624]

Would that be 65p in a 3" pot or bigger.  I know it's only approx.  Good idea though, as I think four plants would probably be plenty for us two.

yups thats in a 3" pot if ya clever you will only sell the pots you buy at carboot sales etc ..... hundreds fer pennies  

[Sadgit]

well I gave away about 100 odd 6-9inch tom plants last year to people at work... some of whom had never grown anything before... I was like the pied piper

I tend not to have excess plants, as I know what I need, but with 2 1/2 plots getting on for 900 sq m, I have quite a lot of excess produce!

This goes down to our church who are raising funds for a redevelopment. At peak excess time, there's often £25- £30 in the pot.
