Feed them on nettle tea, it's free and seems to do the job just as well.

Check the labels for ingredients - you'll probably find they're exactly the same, so save the £1

Nettle or comfrey obviously cheaper. Have tried twice this year to start comfrey seeds off with 0 germination. Tesco did have some at under a £, not a huge size but it worked out cheap.
