Wilkinsons seeds

[Robert_Brenchley]

The seed has to be sown extremely fresh, which is why the packet seed is a total con. I've tried seed from A$A members and from specialist merchants whose product has been properly looked after. I've never tried planting any time other than autumn. I've never germinated a single seed.

Some plants need to be sown while the seed is still green and I'm wondering whether Meconopsis is one of them.

Are these meconopsis edible?

I have used Wilkies and lidles seeds and have done O.K but i only have a garden not a lottie.

I was doing well at giving up seed buying until I read this topic, now I want to buy some more.

Its an addiction, there should be a support group ;D ;D ;D I can stop if i want to, just not today. :-\

I think I am going to have a lot of half used packets left over, do they keep til the next year or should I give them to someone else now?

[saddad]

Almost all will keep to next year... except parsnips, many will keep 3+ years of kept cool and dry, esp those in foil packets with the tops folded over...
It won't help there will still be loads to buy next year...  ;D
