Is it too late for Aubergines
« on: May 21, 2012, 17:39 »
Hi - Have I missed the boat for sowing Aubergines I nipped into Homebase earlier only to find they didnt have any Aubergine plants - I know the pack says by April but it's hardly been April weather -  I just dont want to get my hopes up thats all.


Thanks
Marie

Lots of people on here have given up trying to grow aubergines (some more than once!  ::)) so you might have saved yourself some aggro!  :unsure:  :lol:
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older

Or if you really want to have a go with them, try a few more shops. There must be a few local garden centres or other chains like B&Q in your area that still have some plants.
