I sowed half the packet of pom pom seed I bought on Wednesday, just now. Have put them in my peat and Arthur Bowers mix with vermiculite. It's what I start most of my seeds off in.
Have placed pot in a loose poly bag. Let me know, oh knowledgeable ones, if this is wrong.
Thank you kindly. I have not tried your method, i sow mine in seed trays. |

I just don't have a lot of south-facing window sill space, so only peas get full seed trays to germinate in.

A few more pom seedlings through, not expecting anything good from them, all the good poms seem to be sports.  |

Lovely lot of seedlings, there, Tel

Dahlia seedlings never come true. You just never know what you are going to get. |

I've got about half a dozen, which will do for me.

:oGoodness me!! wot a lot Tel Where you going to put them all !! Keeping them frost free is the problem at the moment, with not having the big greenhouse anymore. But I will muddle through. When planting out time comes they will be planted 1ft apart. |
