Grow Your Own Magazine

You may stumble across the grapevine after googling for certain seeds and think "aha", a quick message and an envelope full will be on their way to you.



If you become part of the grapevine community, pretty much anything is available. Asking for seed, especially hard to get seed, with your first post is a bit of a no no and will result in the post being deleted.

Sending Private Messages to request seeds, without posting on the Grapevine at all, is an even bigger no-no, and may result in being banned from the forum altogether.

Join in the fun and give a little first.

Can I just bump this to add:

Posting a couple of posts saying Hi and then asking all sorts of Grapes for their seed is also a no-no.

Like the Piglet says - give a little first, no Grapes like being taken for a ride.

Thank you.

Whoops I am a seedling. I have asked for seed. Am I being presumptious

Bren - you have 96 posts - you've lasted several weeks and are doing well

This is about people posting 'Hi, I'm X' and pretending to be friendly - and then posting 5 seed requests.

That's a relief. I like it here

You're welcome Brengirl. You're posting and chatting and becoming part of our little community

So I guess I can't say "Hi" and then post a request for someone to send me a rooted cutting of a Galloway Pippin all the way to New Zealand?

I cannot comment as I'm only a seedling which brings me to ask what is the difference bewtween a seedling and a germinator?

You can ask but you won't be here long if you do

You're now a sprouter....as you've gone over 100 posts.

Not a good plan, no

Hi, On the subject of introductions, I am new to the forum and am grateful to anyone who can show me the correct etiquette.
I am a keen gardener and manage a small greenhouse for Greenhouse Sensation in Lancashire.

You can't go far wrong to be honest. So long as you're friendly and polite you'll pick the rest up as you go.
The most common mistakes when you first join are posting in the wrong forum (The mods will sort this out for you though so no worries there) or starting a new topic for something that already exists (try the search function first. But again, the mods will keep an eye on this too).

Welcome and enjoy
