  • Online seed sellers

    About to do some ordering, any advice on who to use? I went to my local Nottcuts earlier, and left with nothing, they were very expensive, and a pretty bad range too. So I intend to do some online ordering tonight.

        It depends on what sort of seeds you're looking for - standard varieties, heritage or unusual ones. Also what quantity of seeds. If you don't need many seeds but a lot of different types try MoreVeg. Real Seeds are highly recommended too.

            I've had some good seeds from premier_seeds_direct on ebay, you usually get more seeds per pack than normal, and there D.E.F.R.A. registered

              Real Seed Catalogue is the one I'd go for - There is a recent post about this company and every member who contributed had the highest praise for them.

              Here is thwe link to the post:

                    This is a topic that could run, and run, and run...

                    I usually start with Real Seeds, then move on to The Organic Catalogue, and follow up with Marshall's. I buy tomato seeds from an American seed seller Amishland Seeds, and chilli seeds from RTG - Home Page . Seed potatoes generally bought from JBA Seed Potatoes, and onion sets & garlic from Marshall's or Thompson and Morgan.

                      I've always bought online from places like Dobies or Marshalls. I was going to do the same again today, but at the last minute I decided to run into Redcar which is ten minutes drive away to see what I could find there.

                      The prices of seeds online is usually between £1.50 and £3.00 per packet, but I found a shop selling Country Value seeds for 65p per pack. Online, I found the same seed at £1.50 per pack. The shop was also selling loose peas, broad beans and string beans that were even cheaper than the packets.

                      I'll see how these plants turn out, and if they are any good, I'll be buying from there again.
