Not sure where this should go so please feel free to move. Just called into Wilkos whilst in town. Their shelves are looking good, good variety of seeds, onion sets, herbs, potato seeds, along with the usual stock of trays etc. Thought I'd better buy something while there so got 3kgs maris piper for £2.98.

Just typical - I can't get to Wilkinsons today - we had 9 inches of snow overnight and I could hardly get the door open this morning (it opens outwards
) let alone get down the hill.
Hopefully I will be able to get into town tomorrow - I can't wait to see what they've got on offer.Forbidden Fruits make many Jams. -
Some Right Price seeds at 28p per packet. Oh dear Lady, you're in for a seed spree!Granny on the Game in SheffieldComment

Oh good. Our Wilkinsons had a whole half shelf of gardening stuff before Christmas. Hope they've woken up now - need to go into town to check, but to cold today.Comment

B&Q also have seed tatties at £3 for 2kg, about 5 different varieties.Comment

I went to wilkinsons yesterday got some seeds and some shallotsComment

Homebase in Portsmouth are selling potatoes, artichokes, garlic and onion along with the usual suspects.
B&Q Have the above plus asparagus and rhubarb and something else I can't remember. (all about £2 odd a pack)
Oh and both are selling pear, apple, plum (I think), apricot and cherry trees for under £10
The other half proclaimed to ‘die a little inside’ when he saw all the bits I bought =P, mainly as we’re running out of room and I’ve taken over the conservatory with my plants lol.

Wilkinsons has recently opened up along the road from me (1 month ago), really need to get there to have a look at what they've got
On a side note - can anyone suggest the best place to get a soil ph tester? Tried B&Q and Dobbies but neither have oneComment

OOh you started something there BM - popped into Wilkos in my lunch half hour - big mistake - 6 packets of seeds, 1 bag of potatoes and some asparagus later- late back to work and the lottie is still frozen so there ain't a lot I can do with the asparagus yet!Whooops - now what are the dogs getting up to?Comment

Nooo BM! I mustn't buy any more seeds! Mustn't, mustn't, mustn't...**sits in corner jibbering**Comment

I heard that my local Wilkinsons have just put all the seed potatoes, onion & shallot sets out this week. I was going to go in and get everything I needed, but guess what? It's snowing yet again! 4 inches has settled since 5pm tonight and it's still snowing heavily.
Don't know now when I'll be able to get there. Only consolation is that everyone else will be in the same boat as me so I should still get a good choice of stuff when I do manage it!Forbidden Fruits make many Jams.Comment

Our local one is just starting to fill their shelves so maybe by the weekend they will have the spuds and stuff out, did manage to come home with more seeds though
