A friend may be coming down from the UK and i'm going to ask her to
get me some Vetch, however i don't know what inoculum to use with it.
Any suggestions? The vetch and the inoculum should be readily
available in stores plus she may have to deal with a clueless store
assistant. She stays in Uxbridge..so any stores that she can visit.

How do you harvest seeds from Vetch? I heard that it can be a major
pest if you allow it to seed, is this true?

I'm also thinking of asking her to get me some plum tree saplings,
raspberry, blueberry, lingoberry and various other fruit cuttings. Is
there a sane way to get the cuttings in a aircraft? What sort of
packaging will it require - I'm trying to maximise my order *grin*;
so any suggestions on suitable packing methods which wont ruin the
cuttings and get her arrested by the UK customs, while taking the
least space and weight! Do you get the above plants in
"hibernating-cutting form" or are they available in
"sprouting-in-packet" form? What should she ask for when she visits
the store?

This is super news and i'm quite pleased . Hopefully fingers and
toes crossed i shall finally have some neat plants growing! I'm also
thinking of some cool veggies (Brussel sprouts, Asparagus, Broccoli,
Kale, Bok Choy, Cress, Chinese Mallow, Swiss chard, Watercress,
Marrow, Rutabaga, Parsnip, Water Chestnut)
Oh boy! Finally!! *grin*. Surely that's not too big a list and won't
weigh too much..13 seed packets..1 packet each - with 25 seeds each?
25 Pounds approxi? Plus cuttings..how much will that be?
