are these lidl seeds any good. ? I heard a report from which i thik saying the majority of seeds are of poor quality so you are better off spending more money on something descent.

I've had good results from Lidl seeds this year, at 15p per packet it's worth a go! 
If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴

I'm thinking that with the major seed companies you are perhaps paying for the name?  ::)

I agree Lauren - the big co's must have marketing budgets to pay for etc  ::)

We bought various seeds from Lidl earlier this year and I must admit i didn't hold out a lot of hope, but at approx 35p ish per packet they were excellent.  Will defo buy again  ;D

I had excellent results with the spinach and yellow french beans seeds I bought last year from lidl. All these seeds are well in date (for between 1-3 years). I think at 15p it is bargin, even if the germinate was not great you are still likely to be saving!

we got a very good germination from our parsnip seed from lidl, better than the twice the price from t&m  :)

 I fully recomend the yellow french bean seeds. I had that many this year struggled to keep up picking them and gave a load away. Also lidl sell some varietys I have not seen anywhere else .

I think I'm going to try Lidl's parsnip seed. I bought 4 packets from T&M and not one germinated  :'(
