99p shop
« on: February 26, 2015, 12:34:13 »
I treated myself to 8 packets of seeds from 99p shop, 4 packets for 99p, total £1.98. Also bought some more expensive ones Mr Fothergills from Morrisons 4 packets cost me around £6 although think I got one packet free.  Will see which ones do best, if I remember to label them correctly. I do not really need 2000 carrots but as mine never seem to come up will keep trying. Can't wait to get sowing. Anyone else used 99p shop for gardening stuff, find their slug pellets OK.  I must not buy anymore seeds or anymore knitting wool.  Might buy a few labels as have a bad habit of planting in pots and forgetting, but I do usually recognise the seeds when they come up and sometimes get a nice surprise.
