    I had a lovely pot of green hair like baby chives.......and then I had a pot with no green at all and little piles of snail poo :mad:

    This happened last year as well :(

    i have seedlings now, noticed them a week after sowing the seeds- im going to let them become strong and then plant them outside in my new flower bed next year, i plan to split them into two- not bad for 50p considering a got a cermanic pot and ceramic plate for bottom, the seeds and compost for 50p.. i love a good bargain lol

    I sowed my 1st Chives back in April, they sprouted in 3 days, and are now about a foot long and remind me of Ken Dodds Hair. Alas the second pot I sowed, I forgot to water properly and look more like bobby Charltons comb over.
