Seeds please m'dear.

Oh heavens next you'll want to know how many won't you??????? can't decide, you make a decision for me and i'll pay. There won't be a huge space cleared for them as it's only really me who likes them so not a fields worth please.
Oh have you got swede seeds as well? the english swede's not the turnipy things? If you have could i have about 10 of them?

Haps did you get your wild garlic?
If you don't get sorted I've emailed a pal who has some and I can get some for you if you don't get it by you.

No I went out looking around here, nothing going , so fixed the shed roof and carpeted the flowerbeds instead,
I also found out that an old school type nursery I used to use years ago is now posh housing , seems I havent been plant shopping for a long time. :eek:

I did think of you yesterday when I saw my first slug (no offence meant) and collected the eggs
Why do slugs trigger thoughts of me ?? :cool:

9 eggs today
1 slug went flying

I stumbled across Johnny's Allotment on youtube last night , whilst looking for plant info ,funny and informative , but NSFW :rotfl:might not be everyones cup of tea .

Just to say, last year I got one of them bagless ,turbo thingy hoovers. It does a good job but omg is it embarrassing when you empty it, especially after grubby jobs/workmen.
The washer has been on in relays all day but I think I'm winning and the Lounge no longer smells of 'eau de smoke bomb'.
It's been really nice out and I'd rather be doing just about anything in the garden but at least stuff can be dried out there.
The frogs have been at it again. My frogspawn is increasing faster than the Natiopnal Debt.

Ok how big the area? (roughly and I know MORE questions) - and re swedes/turnips - the little ones?

Lemon_Tree

how much space do they need? I've got a feeling i've seen that they should be planted in a square for cross poli-whatitsname.

Swedes - the ones that we had pictures of earlier in this thread when i buy them they're usually a fair bit smaller than a football but bigger than a tennis ball. Do they have different breeds with different sizes? Heavens i don't think i have enought plant knowledge to be left in charge of an allotment.

They certainly do have eggs, as do snails, one day I even found a snail in the process of laying eggs, felt a bit as though I was intruding

Hampsterpoo, do you live near me? There used to be a good place called 'West's garden centre' - it's now a housing development called 'West Gardens' :rotfl:

Got to go to bed soon - got up at 4-30 this morning and have now been hitting the home-brew so definitely time for bed! Night night!
