I bought a heated propagator today. Not sure if they work but it's got to be worth a try. My sister says her B&Q one is good.
So I started off my chilli seeds. I had some left over from last year (Suttons Jalapeno) and I bought a new pack (Mr Fothergill's Aji Crystal hot) a few weeks back. I planted up 8 pots with a few seeds in each just in case some don't germinate. I chose pots because they were easier to find, were new and clean left over from last year. I'll let you know how I get on. And in case you like me found it difficult to find a heated propagator today, Do it All have them for under £15, B&Q have sold out :-(
Wilkinsons had some garlic, so I bought one pack and I was lucky because there were 4 bulbs in the pack. I will try to plant them on Sunday.
Have a great weekend. Amanda x

By the way - get your garlic in quickly but not in the proagator as it needs a period of cold so cloves form. Ours have been planted in tubs in the cold greenhouse since the begining of winter and another batch are in pots so they can be planted outside later.
