Title: swapping in advance?
Post by: Sarah-b on October 04, 2004, 11:00:53
How would this work?
I have already bought some veg seeds, and there are loads more that I want. If someone else is planning the same as me - could we agree a swap "up front" on therefore, I wouldn't order so many different seeds.
For example, I already have:
Chicory witloof
Leeks - startrack
Squash - patty pan
Celeriac - Ibis
Cardoon
and I would like:
Amaranth
New zealand spinach
salsify
scorzonera
parsley
spring onions
radicchio
leek - very late type
tomatoes

Any ideas?
Sarah.

Sarah, have a look at my thread "Potato Seeds and Onion Sets". I have listed all the seeds I plan to buy if I am not able to swap with anyone. If you see anything there you like let me know and I'll do a swap with you for your Celeriac and Patty Pans. PS I have decided to buy my potato seeds from the garden centre (you can select individually rather than by the sack) so I will not have these to swap.

Great idea Sarah!

I have stacks of parsley seed (the curly kind). I'm also planning on buying some french or italian flatleaf stuff.

I'm rather interested in your patty pans too. Do you wanna swap?

I will be buying several different varieties of tomatoes, but I haven't decided which yet as I've only got two seed catalogues!

Great! I'll count out the patty pan seeds then - must be enough for the 3 of us.
Will PM you both with more details!

Sarah.
