Good one Vince That also helps deter compost gnats.

 

My second sowings are coming up and they look a bit sturdier

Can they cause problems?

 

Thanks Freddy,

Do I post a picture or link to one on my site?

Cheers

Richard

 

Hiya Richard

Probably best to post a piccy, if that's ok

 

Yep, I only like milk in my tea. There were billions of them on the farm, tea was black with floaters.

 

'Floaters'!

What I meant was, can they cause problems for plants?

 

Oh, not that I know of

 

Hiya chums

Given the problems I had getting the seed to germinate, and the recent posts regarding compost, I was wondering if folks here think that some composts are better than others, for germination? Obviously, if one was to try to germinate something amongst a load of twigs, then one wouldn't expect good results. But what if it looks ok, on the face of it?
