Thank you . It's all getting exciting now ! I was eyeing up the glassine paper that my bread came in to repurpose as seed packets!

That's mysterious, MR. Vetivert's missing email had a simple explanation but I have no idea why you're having trouble. I'll send the admin email to you again.

Sorry about that Vetivert. I sent your message to the person who once upon a time used the other name you sometimes use elsewhere!
It is now sent under your present A4A user name.

Quote from: markfield rover on October 15, 2025, 16:16:37Thank you JanG , I am doing my finalish sort out and I have a CFB and a mangetout that I  was only able to save a few seeds 5/6 per member, if that's okay I'll add, also I believe the CFB Croft Italian, I added to the circle eight years ago - so may not be required by some. Cheers

As Galina says, 5 to 6 seeds per member is absolutely fine for peas and beans and cucurbits. And I would love some Croft's Italian please, so do include that too (minus one packet)

Jan, how unusual is that black pea?  Looks so exotic.  And having over the years shared, I believe all of Alan Kapuler's peas, it is great to get to grow a pea bred by his daughter too.

I only have 4 seeds each of the watermelon MR.   5 or 6 is plenty for peas.  Too few for some veggies, but with peas, beans or squash, that is no issue.  And bean Croft's Italian can be shared without a packet for me.  I have just checked and have seeds, as well as a little stash safely in the freezer.
