    I use a Dymo label printer, label all the trays up when sowing seeds and sometimes that even carries on to the first potting on stage..... then it goes to hell in a hand basket thereafter. :heehee:

        Thank you @Upsydaisy for the box and encouragement. I will use the box when the Don't Know is full, perhaps "mixed" would look more professional :heehee:

        Well that's already Advanced Labelling- you put in labels! :love30: The fact that the labels don't really match the plants is of secondary importance. Well done!

          I have label OCD and also keep track with a spreadsheet, but foxes, birds and fairies re-arrange them overnight to tease me.

              A friend of ours uses pieces of slate and puddle stones and paints the names on - very neatly. They tend to stay OK. :blue thumb:

              What is the meaning of this word 'label' of which you speak of?
