As @Scroggin says parsnips are well known for needing to be fresh seed. Another marginal one is French beans, if you are lucky you get two...
Interesting, I have found similar to @fairygirl more and more lettuce needs to be bought new each year. Franchii seeds seem an exception but...
I did venture out after all . Went to plots, just picked up crops and things, no energy to do any more. It's still very dry everywhere.
Hope it was a good day @fairygirl .
Still nothing, Still :cry3::sick0026:Going stir crazy!
@Peaceful Gardener , your experiments with old seed is interesting. I also sowed winter density and chicory alongside mizuna, mustard greens...

Yesterday I planted crocus bulbs into pots. Just got to keep the ruddy squirrels off them now. Last year I removed the chicken wire mesh as the...
@NigelJ Sometimes I think the taxonomonists, just like doing this to keep themselves in work. :biggrin:I can't remember all the detail now but...
