Source for green manure?
« on: July 14, 2008, 21:56 »
I can only find farm size supplies or small bag for silly money supplies. Can anyone recommend a supplier for allotment sized quantities of seed?

hi there fellow hullite , green manure can mustard seeds ,  you can buy it from any seed company on the net , mashalls, sutton seeds , ect , the green manureis planted when your summer crops are finished , green manure is spread on your plot to over winter , just dig it in after Christmas any time

Cheapest place for mustard seed I know of is our market. :o

This placelooks quite good but I'm not sure that the packets of sprouting seeds wouldn't cover just as much.  :?

Suffolk Herbs They did green manures almost before they were heard of. :D Their website doesn't suit my resolution or browser or something but at least I can read the g/sqm stuff :tongue2:
I demand the right to buy seed of varieties that are not "distinct, uniform and stable".
