I've gone back to "Monarch" this year, Prinz, Prague Giant an Asterix did not do so well in our soil. Loads bolted.

Some things like spinach will bolt regardless. But some things - say beetroot, leaf beet, celeriac etc - are more likely to bolt if after germination they are exposed to too much wintry early spring weather.  Hot dry summer weather is not the only culprit.

Silverleaf:
My seeds are stored in an IKEA metal filing cabinet! It fits under the counter in my craft studio and has 6 drawers a bit bigger than A4.

I need two of those drawers for my peas! ;)

Saving your own peas and beans does take up some space!  :wave:

Silverleaf:
That’s it Saddad, I’m not as obsessed with beans as I am with peas, but beans have their own drawe. Then one for flowers, herbs, companion plants and plants for my rabbits, and two for other vegetables. I also decant as much as possible into small plastic grip seal bags to save space.

Honestly though I don’t think I’ve got that many seeds.

At least I keep telling myself that!!!  :toothy10:
