(This is possibly a little 'Devon-centric'...)

Value House have got there end of season seed sale on - at least the Bideford branch has. So if you live near the stores in Bideford, Barnstaple or Exeter it might be worth popping in to check. We can then sneer at the paltry price drops at Wyevale, where you'll still have to pay 50p!!!

At Value House its 25p per packet...

Devon's great...

(thought I was very restrained... but I might have to go back later.... eek!)

[New shoot]

22 packs is pretty restrained at 25p a go.  I'd have done way, way worse 

Mind you, all may be lost if you go back again

So Baldy do you want my list 

[Baldy]

Cadders,

I believe that if "I've shown you mine" then its only fair... 

I will be going back tomorrow - managed to keep myself busy this afternoon but now I've slowed up for the evening I can't help but cast my mind back to those packets that I put back... Will try to limit myself to sweet peas... I've already got too many seeds for the space that I have... 

Cheers,
Balders

Thanks for the offer mate  (and I'm not that kind of boy... well I am but only with girls) 

Looking at my list and with what will be coming from the seed circle I have all next years seeds already 

And some for the following year, when the Wyevale event happens I will be selecting on the sow by year to try and build a stock for 2016 & 2017

[Baldy]

Went back today,,, 

Bought 42 more packets... 

Cheers,
Balders

(Have to say that the results from my efforts for the seed circle aren't too impressive...)

[Baldy]

Popped into the Value House store in Barnstaple today. No seeds on the display shelves...
but there were 3 big container stuffed to the gills with random seed packets - at 10p a pop I had to succumb to a little temptation!
Another 20 packets bought - bringing me up to something like 75 packets bought in the last two weeks or so.
(Overwintering onion sets are next on the list, so the addiction is not yet slated)

Cheers,
Balders

[sunshineband]

It is now official.. Baldy, you have an addiction to purchasing seeds 

[Baldy]

Yerp.. I know it... Which means I probably don't have an addiction. A bit Catch 22   

Cheers,
Balders

Anyone grown cactus from seed? Advice?

(I don't even like cactus very much but hey, I've got a packet or two..)

Boy .... I thought I had a seed problem 

[devonbarmygardener]

Why do I not live particularly close to these bargain garden centres!

[Baldy]

Its very unfortunate DBG...

On the other hand you live closer (than me) to Italy...
