Dobies veggy seeds.
« on: May 07, 2023, 11:36 »
Good morning gardeners,

I'm trying Dobies veg' seeds but nothing is coming up yet.  I'll report as and when the various vegetables show themselves. :(

Cheers,  Tony.
I may be growing OLD, but I refuse to grow UP !

That's interesting Tony because our local Dobies G/Centre   has very little of there own seed more of other brands personally I don't buy Dobies seeds but I must say all the seeds we've sown this time  have had good germination so its going to be interesting to see if you get good germination from Dobies seeds watch this space A

The garden centres are Dobbies.  They are completely unrelated to Dobies Seeds

Where/how have you sown them? It's been a cold spring, so an unheated greenhouse, or even the windowledge, may not have been warm enough this year  :unsure:

Sown in warm weather, pots at chest height, watered sparingly and covered by clear plastic sheet (as recommended.  I cannot see anything I've done wrong.  The only thing I can think of is the compost.  I'm off down Pound stretchers for more seed.

Cheers,  Tony.
