  • It is definitely a good feeling when you can finish off a packet and throw it away. I feel I'm getting things down to manageable proportions, then. Then later that same day I buy at least 3 packets to replace them... 😬😬

    • Just wondering if anyone here won the million seeds prize and if they did, do they have any to spare?
      You can never have too many seeds, can you

      • Seed box Inventory time coming up shortly, so that I don't go overboard at the Wyevale seed sale.

        I have two tool boxes the one on the left with unopened packs that need to Umm be used this year and the other on the right of the photo has opened packs that have been decanted into plastic zippy bags that are stored in plastic boxes by type of seed.

        The small box in front of the picture is 2017 and 2018 seed so I try and work my way from oldest to youngest seed, and the small plastic box has what need to be sown next in it.

        My Word document for my seed list is over 4 x the permitted size so I can't upload it. So I've tried uploading as a jpg

                  OK go back to my post, I've managed to upload the list made in the depths of winter last year for 2016 as three images If someone is really bored they can count the amount of packets of seeds.

                  The list shows what was new packs and what's opened and in the small zippy bags. Tell me I have OCD but I make lables for the zippy bags as well.

                    • 2015 - 265
                      2016 - 506

                      I am rather impressed. I have a lot more flowers this year but my total figure hasn't grown - that much Also I haven't hit 700 either so I don't have to ban myself from getting any more seeds

                      2017 (almost) - 543 (439 veg, 104 flowers)

                        • Erm...NG I've gone way over.

                          I had 316 in late 2014. I'm now (not including the VSP) on 4 seed tins and a carrier bag, with 739 packets and 2 seed circles yet to come in. And a small seed order from the lovely Thomas Etty.

                          Someone please point me to a self-help group!!

                          I think I might run a seed-based charity fundraiser in late January to shift some of it. And perhaps going to Seedy Sunday is a dangerous idea.

                              • I'm intrigued by sparrow's "739 packets" yet to come in! Even by my standards, that's a LOT of seeds
                                Tell me more please
