I think one underestimates the rate at which a healthy spring sown
seedling progresses. A mile a minute it seems, faster by far than an
Autumn sown struggler.

I haven't given up on spring sown, in fact I've just ordered some more,
plus a pkt of icicle radishes. Neighbouring allotment recommends Sea
Kay, so I'll give them a try. 50,000 positive feedback, can't be bad,
although their site is a bit tiresome to navigate

OT but whilst on the subject of Ebay, I'd try these :-

The fact you get 500 seeds for £1 grabbed my attention. I grow chillies
in the g/h, in the space alongside toms and cucumbers.


Easy enough to find them
