    I just thought it was too thin to be from an established plant, the big one in the picture was covered in RSM when I looked closely, I took it outside and sprayed it the other day. The others I have are mostly leafless now, I'll have to wake them up soon.

    Green happy shop for seeds

    Thanks for the tip. Will definitely try them next year. I usually order from Chiltern Seeds but are unhappy with the germination rate as soon as cultivars are used.

    is there a reason why my Gaultheria Procumbens keeps getting dug up

    While it is low growing, it's not trailing so you will have to position the basket carefully to get a good view of the red berries. It likes moist well drained soil you will have to water regularly.

    seed potatoes with long shoots

    You can leave them in a cool light space for a while if you're not ready to plant out yet. The shoots will green up and strengthen a bit. Plant carefully as already said.
