We have sown loads of tomatoes in the hope of selling some of those as well.

What will you put the little plants in and will you put drainage holes in bottom.  Just that I was thinking along similar lines and was thinking would take profits down if put plantlets in pots,  I haven't seen any at boot sales so was wondering what the norm was.

Thanks

I am going to put them in plastic pots. Bought a load from Wilkos last year for the 96 petunia plants! They aren't too expensive as it isn't thick plastic.

Hi Elcie, very intrigued to know what was in the BBQ selection of the grow your own kits?


This wasn't a grow your own kit I saw in a shop but a suggestion in a magazine.  It is on P45 of this month's Grow Your Own Magazine and has strawerries, chieves, parsley, thyme and marigolds - all useful for the BBQ apparently!

Guess you can use them to flavour the meat before you commit it to the flames!!
