I would like to have a go as well, if any spare. I have a lot of veg. and flower seeds, let me know if you are looking for anything in particular.

Liz

your growing spuds from the seeds?( great experiment ive been meaning to try for years but so wrapped up in strawberry and raspberry expeiments never had chance,well done

Lynda66 and Lizzy added to list - can I add you also swaine or are you just wishing the project well?! There's several left so feel free to grab one while you can.

count me in if you have any left.

qotc - OK you're in too!

would love to try the blues as well please, I think that i may have some Rooster seed fruits forming so if you want will trade (if they form correctly of course )

i found this site which makes interesting reading Potato Breeding Overview

Sounds like agood trade - you're on the list.

I'd love to have a go too, if you have any left.

loveday69 - I think there should be enough for you too!

I've just emptied the first bucket - cooked and eaten - simply with salt, pepper and butter - best way to taste a spud imho - quite lovely even taking out of the equation that they were home grown.

Biggest critic - my son loved and will have with dinner later! RESULT!

I'll be emptying another bucket this week so will be asking for details soon!

I'll be aiming to give 2 fruits apiece from separate plants to hopefully ensure best results.

Even those who may end up with a single fruit will have 50-plus seeds to select from.

Perhaps we should start a thread next year regarding the results of this experiment under 'growing techniques'?

May have to close first wave list soon - reckon around 2 places left?

Possible offer again when second row 'deliver' - which 'may' not happen bearing in mind this is nature's gift.

potato seed

if you have any seed left i would love to have some. i don't have seed to swap so could i send an sae to get the seed. will the seed fit into an ordinary envelope. let me know if you have any seed to send to ireland
regards nemo

Sent you a pm a day or two back regarding sending you a padded envelope.

Hello everyone!

I have sufficient saved padded envelopes from my many (cunning - to max freebies) purchases from T&M.

I also have a number of carelessly processed 2nd class stamps courtesy of the PO - which I have no conscience in properly recycling.

I have decided that I will send out anyway 2nd class (on principle) as it is within standard weight - to spread cheer and goodwill amongst my fellow Grapes..

I'll enclose a note to say whether I'd like to try any of the bits you have on offer for swaps - taking my chance if you've run out. Any of you who don't get a 'demand' perhaps I might ask you some time in the future if you advertise something of interest to me to send without sae? This will save on costs, extra envelopes and put the pile I have to good use!

'Nemo' you get lucky this time as well. I've also had to ensure that this variety of spud would normally be delivered to Ireland as some are not premitted to be imported - this variety OK according to T&M - so assume same for seed.

There is sufficient seed fruits to service all requests so far - 2 fruits from separate plants, 1 lge, 1 sml, hopefully to maximise success rate!

The hoped for second row have all shed their flowers so no more fruit I'm afraid.

With this I wish you all - me too - success in this experiment and please share your findings on the Vine next year.

Please PM with your addresses and I'll do the rest over the next day or so - cheers!

SORRY - NO FURTHER SUPPLIES FOR THIS YEAR (2008).

Cheers Quark - exciting times coming up!
