Does anyone have a good site they can recomend where i can buy some green manure seeds, i know i have probaly left it abit late but i`m trying to get hold of some winter field beans.
Hi sunflower,
Try the Organic Catalogue - via the HYDRA web page (Henry Doubleday reseach).
I wanted some too, and went to the garden centre, but all they had was red clover - didn't do any reseach and just bunged it on a patch last week. have you read anything about that one? It seems to have germinated (I looked very closely at the soil yesterday).
Then i found an old packet of mixed green manure so sprinkled that on another patch. If it doesn't work, I'll just put some manure on later.
Why did you particularly want the beans?

Suffolk Herbs do greenery too, but not your beans. = Tim
The glover is good, can be left over winter. Fixes nitrogen in the soil so i read. The organic cat is all sold out. so don`t really know where to go now :-[
hi sunflower,
try Kings seeds-this is where I got my field beans from. 99p for a biggish pack. good luck.
You little star ;D, got my field beans & some rye so that should keep the weeds at bay this winter. Thanks alot for that web site.
good stuff! :) :)
