Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Mine were just kebab skewers from Asda. No good if you've got young children in your household though. Wouldn't want them falling on them!

When I've cleared out the pots of tulips I'm going to start off some more dwarf sunflowers in the pots outdoors.

Mine are waiting for me to have the enthusiasm to plant them out, cba to pot them on first.

I planted 3 varieties, 4 of each.
one set has fully germinated and all grown, one three germinated and one got eaten off and the third none germinated at all
trouble is, i can't read the labels so don't know if I have giants or the multi headed short ones.
