I don't want to hijack the thread, so I have started this one.

It is a fascinating read and you have my total admiration. My rare attempts at saving seeds have resulted in mouldy masses while heritage varieties I have tried all too easily show the deficiencies in taste and quality that (some) modern varieties have passed by.

My question is how do you keep the strains true when you are growing several varieties of the same thing?

I recently planted some ranunculas bulbs - following instructions to plant them in small biodegradable pots and place in a dark, cool place before planting them out in early spring. On checking them I find that they are all sprouting and sending up shoots already. What should I do? Should I plant them up in pots and put them in a shed/conservatory over the winter months?

How are you doing? We was away in the motor home got stuck in the soft ground at one site and drove in a rolling roadblock one day as every body else was going so fast they were aquaplaning off the road when they braked. My garden is up on the highest point of town, being the site of the windmill a couple of centuries ago. Not so lucky for the daughter she got 3 foot of water right through the house with such a force it carried the fridge freezer right down the hall and smashed the front door out.
