I'm not even going to bother. Not because I've got so many it would take me all day to count them, but because I haven't got enough to be worth recording.

How many packets of seeds have you got?

^^^^^^ VC you will have to think about opening a museum soon as some of the packets are going to get so old you'll have trouble keeping plant hunters out of your seed box/room/trailer/loft/stadium etcI have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work. Thomas A. Edison

I've come to realise that I'm not really a seedaholic, but a seed-catalogue-aholic. I like browsing, but it looks like I'm quite strict when it comes to buying.
One thing I've done this year - admittedly for the first time ever - is start a shopping list (on MoreVeg) or wishlist on other suppliers. That way, I add things to my list as and when I come across them. But when it came to purchasing, I whittled the final list right down. That way, I've allowed myself the pleasure of being tempted but haven't actually succumbed.
Sounds very virtuous, but you can't half waste a lot of time. The number of hours I've spent looking at seed potatoes is ridiculous. All because my usual first earlies aren't available for some reason from anywhere this year.

Not counting mine, but I'm about to start the annual re-doing of the seed spreadsheet cos the last one is hopelessly out of date.http://mudandgluts.com - growing fruit and veg in suburbia

I am a mere beginner with 62 veg and 56 flowers - and dropping.
I don't count duplicate packets, just varieties. And I have vowed to buy no more until what I have is used up so I can get closer to the current year with "sow by" dates. By that I don't mean buy none, but, for instance, buy no fresh kale until I have used all the kale seeds I have now.
I also am not counting self saved seeds, because they are "bonus" seeds and have no "sow by" date.Location - Leicestershire - Chisit-land
Endless wonder.
