  • wow, sounds good/promising fidget - I will give it a go, thanks to you and David. I wondered - mice - is it just the seeds that they like or is it the seedlings? My first batch is up in the unheated GH, covered with polythene, but they look weak - if I remove the cover have I extended a dinner invitation to the little furry things??

    Yay!!!  First sweet pea seedling has made an appearance - sown last Wednesday!!! 

    They're indoors on the dining room windowsill.  The mini-grow house is waiting for them. image

     

    Banish them to the 'mini-grow house', pronto! image

    That will be no problem at all at this stage of their development, Louise.

    I think Louise was doing a little experiment David, if I recall correctly and wanted to see if there was a difference between the seed compost and MPC, but now she has spoilt her experiment??  I think that is right image

    I get confused sometimes, Tracy  image......thought this was to do with seed being sown too shallow & topping-up the pots wiv compost.

    It was David, but I think she may have topped up with the wrong compost....I may be wrong as it has been known for me to get confused but I blame baby brain image

    I agree, but I just wanted to assure her no harm would be done!

    Your say, why don't you just go away and practice your use of the English language (spelling and punctuation) instead of waiting around to criticise and cause trouble!!!!
