[darcyvuqua]

[veggiechicken]

I've deleted my original message to spare your blushes - you can do the same with yours if you want!!

[darcyvuqua]

im not bottered VC i found it quite funny to be honest

[veggiechicken]

I thought it was hilarious but I get told off on here for being norty

I use those trays of 40 - but I ditch the trays and just use the pots. I get them at Asda/Morrisons for £2.99 though.
I sow up to about 40 toms or chillis in each one, and they go into the heated prop, and once cracked taken out, and once they have 2 true leaves, potted on into a pot of their own.

Probably the best spelling mistake of the year.

[veggiechicken]

Talking pots for a minute - I prefer square pots as you can pack them together in a seed tray or propagator without wasting space.

yep been thinking of these Buy the Bosmere Vegetable Tray with 18 Pots at the range.

not sure if i can justify the costs though

[veggiechicken]

Don't bother with the tray - just buy the pots and an ordinary seed tray or gravel tray (without holes).
Buy 9cm Bosmere Planting Pots - Pack of 18 at The Range (this is another misleading advert but it should be 18 pots for £2.99 - I think)

You're quite set on the trays, aren't you? Trouble with The Range (and other retailers like them) is they aren't garden centres: things look pretty, but don't necessarily do the job.

Looking at those, I'd say that once loaded with compost, esp. wet compost, that tray is going to bend, split and drop everything on the floor.


Get thee to a Wilkinsons Sale, and pick up gravel trays for 40p each, and a stack of square pots for about the same.

It's a bit early for Wilkinsons to be stocking garden stuff, they're full of Chrimbo rubbish at the mo. But they will have plenty of stock by the time you need to be sowing seeds.
