seed question for sarah pls

goldblend · 02-11-2008, 12:11 AM

hi sarah can i ask is it too late in the year to sow seeds from your mixed variety pack that you sell outside in my garden, i live in kent and have an outdoor section that gets plenty of sun (well when we see it lol), not sure if left it too late now for the winter
thanks

As Sarah hasn't replied yet, I'll jump in! If I were you I'd sow just some of the seeds now in a sheltered area, and if necessary protect with a cloche or coldframe. Experiment and see what happens. You may have a micro-climate area in your garden and the weeds will thrive

ive put mine in one of them mini plastic green houses and they are thriving, just need to remember to zip door up at night tp protect from frost

...and tie it to the ground if the weather becomes windy

I had a lovely mini-greenhouse until it took off one night...still not sure where it landed
