Seed Sowing thread 2019

[Teds Mum]

Sown another batch of corno di torro rosso sweet peppers, elephant ear giant red peppers and some purple pepper seeds saved from my sister-in-laws garden. If they all come up I'll have 60 plants! Fingers crossed for a good summer as these will all be growing outside.

I'm very fond of cabbage too. I've just sown my summer cabbage seeds - two per 3" pot - took me all of five minutes.

[MyWifesBrassicas]

planted two full packets of bedford champion onions which are dated 2004 best before.
not too hopeful though

Just to update, none of these 15 year old onion seeds have germinated, no surprise there
