This has to be the best thread I have read so far, I thought it was only me that had a fridge full of seeds and am still buying more. I keep sneeking into Garden Centres just to "look" at what they have to offer and keep coming out with more ie today in B & Q I bought a veg seed pack for about £3.50 with 8 different varieties of seeds in them..too good to walk past. I do save the silca gel satchets out of new handbags etc to put in the tin with the seeds to keep them dry in the fridge. I this the best way to store them!!

I'm so glad that I'm not alone in my addiction.........P.S B & Q have reduced first early seed potatoes down to £2 a bag and there were 60 Pentlan Javlins in my bag, what a bargain

LOL Helen

I was offline for a few days but glad to see there are many others in the same boat as me. I have managed to resist buying while I have been in shops the past couple of days but only because I know i have a lovely seed order due within the week. ;D

I said i wasn't going to do it this year!! in my 8by6 foot greenhouse I have
15 types of tomatoes + 10 sorts of veg starting off + 41 types of flowers!!
dosn't look much until you start pricking out :o
I'v got a lottie for the veg but only a small garden so why why  did I do it again?

[grawrc]

What do you do with all the excess?

[Curryandchips]

Excess? I just keep planting, the lottie seems to swallow it all up ! The shock comes when I start harvesting !

[grawrc]

Well I just end up with no available space :'( :'( :'(

Blimey I'm a real novice, only my little cardboard box from Dobies so far :-[.  I am certainly addicted though and spent an evening going through all the packets putting dates into a diary.  I then realised just what I'd taken on and wondered how I'm going to fit it all in!

another woolies bargain today (even though I have seeds coming out of my ears) - they've still got the buy one get one free on all plants, bulbs and seeds and my local one stocked up this week so today I got 8 packs of various flower seeds, some dahlias, gladis and crocosmia bulbs for £9 in total (for companion planting of course!)  ;D ;D I must stop this!

[Petra]

I keep thinking that I'm controlling those urges then someone throws a name in like "Thomson and Morgan", "Dobies", "Alan Roman", "Poundland" even and I'm off again, cecking out what they have to offer............it's almost uncontrollable. In fact why aren't I in bed now instead of being logged onto here?? :-\

Know exactly what you mean Petra. I've been a bit surprised on the Lidl/Aldi bargain threads no one has mentioned their seeds at 29p per packet or 49p for peas, beans etc - and the range (in Lidl) is much greater than last year. I for one got sidetracked from the great trolley dash to the cloches..........

[Jitterbug]

My greenhouse is full, the windowsills are groaning, the propagator is stuffed to the gills and my poor dining room table (glass) is loaded with trays of pricked out seedlings.   Even the top of the kitchen cupboards have dahlias and begonias warming up ::)

MY DH just shakes his head sadly.  He even offered to help me take them to the greenhouse.  I do not have the heart to tell him theres no space so tomorrow I think I will have to try and erect some kinda temporary shelving in the greenhouse.

And I have not even finished sowing all my seed!!! ;D :-[
