Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Also have some left - have been meaning to plant them for a couple of days, but not a priority.

20x Gelbe Reisen planted: 12x individually, 8x in pairs. Trays in greenhouse. Last year I saw some gardens with impressive stands of sunflowers, being crammed together seemed to be doing them no harm. So i may also try some block planting, as well as individual rearing.
