Introducing myself.

Hi Phil, and a warm welcome to the vine.

[out in the cold]

Hi Phil,

Welcome from sunny Alford, although the Grampian region is well represented on here.

Window sills are great for starting off seedlings, as is a cold frame, which is fairly easy to make if you can lay your hands on some old pallets and plastic sheeting.

Welcome to the vine Phil.......a couple of threads worth checking out for starters are "What I did today" & "Seed sowing thread"...........it'll give you a guide as to what other grapes are doing.

Thanks, I'll get a look in.

Welcome, I am interested in how your raised bed was a disaster? We learn a lot from other peoples mistakes. My advice is to not be too eager to sow seeds, even indoors because we aint done with winter yet and a lot of seedlings that need to go out is not funny when its to cold to do so.

Well I'm almost to embarrassed to say but I filled it up with potting compost, my brother come over from Ireland and just laughed. I did say I was green.
I have replaced it all now with soil and well rotted manure. Should be better this year.

Welcome, another grape for me to enjoy listening too when it's not growing season here.
