  • Paper pots for seeds

    Ok, I don't have that many seeds to swap but am willing to swap some seeds for paper pots, my bf got me one of T&M's papper pot makers for Christmas last year and I've been making and 'trading' loads through my local LETS group.

    The pots are a little like pete pots, about 1" - 1 1/2" across and 3" or deeper (I can make them deeper for starting leeks, carrots, spring onions, etc. in) and hold there shape very well.

    I'd like cabbage, kale, leek or sweetcorn, but if you'd like some pots just let me know what you have to swap.

    I can't help you with the seeds but I'd love to know more about the paper pot makers.

    Did you get them from Thompson and Morgan through t'internet?

              Hi there,

              just wondering what a LETS group is and does? I've not heard the term before.

              Thanks,

                Not sure what it stands for if anything, but a LETS group is a group of people who trade their time/ skills etc. for credits which they can then use for buying someone elses skill or time etc. Some people like plumbers and electricians have obvious skills people want, or others might grow veg and give that away for credits or someone might offer to do washing/ ironing - could be anything almost!

                Here's a link LETS Link UK: Homepage Find your local area and see if there's a LETS group there!

                  Mine didn't come from T&M but I've got one of those paper pot thingies and they're fab, really really good, sowed all my toms, peppers, chillies etc in them last year.

                  Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

                  Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

                    Just a quick note to let anyone who hasn't had their pots/had a message back from me that I will be in contact soon, I've just spent a very unpleaseant week in bed and am only just getting on top of things again, it's anazing what builds up just at home let alone at work when you're out of it for a few days, still I now why I don't take hoildays very often LOL

                      Hope you're feeling better Poppy but any chance of the paper pots you said you would send for the seeds I sent you way back early November ?
                      I think other grapes are waiting for pots too.
