    Hi, I'm in Cheshire and this is my first year growing flowering plants from seed. I have a cheap plastic cold frame/green house from the garden centre and I planted my first seeds at the beginning of May. Many transplanted to the garden with some success, and some absence of progress... Still, I'm hooked! This looks a great site!

      Hi Catbell and welcome. As Pamsdish says everyone makes mistakes, that's the easy part, if you don't know just ask because someone on here will know the answers.
