hi all,
just thought i would mention a site that does cheap organic seeds.from 19p a pack.
i bought some the other day and got approx 500 seeds per pack.new to the gardening lark,so not sure whether these are good value or not.

It's an interesting site, has anyone bought their seeds? I'd be interested to know what the germination rate is, I've had very varied results over the years from the mainstream 'big names.'

i bought a dozen packs,just to try.only sowed them 2 days ago so will let u know.thought the asparagus were good value.50 seeds for 29p i think it was.

My seedoholic tendency has got the better of me.  Only one way to find out.  Needed more golden beetrrot.  Love it.  Though it seems to be a bit germination shy from any source.

Lidl's cheap seeds very good germinators.

Sounds good on the face of it.

Most places have half price or less seeds at the moment.

B&M are selling packs with four varieties in for 49p. Ideal for any one starting next year,  best before 2012 on the pack. could get enough to fill a plot for a couple of quid.

Is there an association for seedaholics does any one know?

No association I know of, there is a site called seedaholic.com although I suspect that would fuel your addiction rather than help it.

Orders some wanted some more golden beetroot.  Not sure whether they are a bargain.  Not much seed in each packet.  Think that Nickys are better value.

Perhaps we should start one.  It is nice to know that there are others about.
