Seeds sorted yet?
« on: December 27, 2011, 12:11 »
Got my seed orders just before Christmas plus some lovely seed swaps from forum members but just chucked them at the seed box in the rush.

Had a lovely time just now sorting them into order and writing a full list of what I have  :)  Just got to work out how to fit it all in now  :lol:

Been a sucker for novelties as usual and got some unusual stuff to try - Aztec Broccoli anyone  ::)  :lol:  but just lurrrrrve the feeling of anticipation.

And got the veg seed pass the parcel heading my way sometime so even more to look forward to  :D  :D  :D

All my seeds have arrived now, i think i now need 2 allotments  :D
Give me a sense of humor, Lord,
Give me the grace to see a joke,
To get some humour out of life,
And pass it on to other folk.
Happy new year to you all xx

I am still waiting for the seed order though my allotment assoc. Still, I have plenty to keep me going and love nothing better than curling up with a nice hot cuppa, a pad of paper, a pen and my seed tin and working out what needs to happen when. This has to be one of my favorite jobs of the year.  8)

As a Christmas gift to my other half I filled a shiny new lunch tin with packets of seeds. There are all sorts in there - the usual varieties as well as the more novelty ones (purple broccoli, japanese red carrots, yellow beetroot etc).
I have 3 varieties of potato on order too so we'll have to be creative with the space we have - it's only a half plot (though I anticipated this problem and also bought him a pack of 3 matching patio grow bags too, hehe).

I'm just trying to convince him to sit down and help me plan the plot, as there will be a lot to cram in....!  :lol:

I only have 164 packets of seeds  :(

Just counted them up from my spreadsheet. where did they all come from? I must be sleep shopping.  

If someone has 10 different Tomato varieties and 9 different Peppers do you think treatment is needed?  :mad: :mad: :mad:

I'm sure I really have no idea who you are referring to  

I'm with seedman - no we have not got enough seeds and I prescribe a full re-reading of those seed catalogues just to make sure we haven't missed anything vital  :lol:
