When they start to grow use some aluminium foil behind them (on the room side) to act like a mirror and reflect the light on to them.

What toms do you buy DD?


I'll let you know when I've checked, my staple is "Shirley" plus any old seed kicking around for outside.

However I've gone a bit mad this year!
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

Well I've just planted 97 broad bean seeds in their protective compost and toilet rolls in an unheated green house never had any problems before, usually end up with about 70 plants

Broad beans are a different matter, they can over-winter outside -try that with tomatoes! :lol:  :lol:

Right....

Shirley
Brandywine
Black Russina
Supa Roma
Black Cherry
Tamina

Some kind person also sent me some Paul Robeson.

I'll leave the Alicante, Ailsa Craig & Harbinger in the tin, I think!
