5 Ways to Save Money on Seeds

[@chicosgarden]

Thanks Robin for another very informative video! You are such an inspiration. I've only just begun to get into gardening in the past month so all of my seeds were bought in B&M and on line. I am going to try and save some seeds this year from store bought items because I am so curious to try to grow that way too.

[@robinscontainergarden]

I should have said that saved seeds from your own garden are better adapted to actually grow in your garden with every season. Good luck getting seeds saved - I'll talk about that close to the end of this growing season, too. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos 😊

With you in the non pictorial packets… why pay for the extra print when you don’t need it 😊

[@robinscontainergarden]

They are pretty, but they also take up more room in my storage box than the other packets. It's like air in a crisp packet 😂

Great tips👍

[@robinscontainergarden]

Thank you! I hope they're helpful for you 😊

Least I’ve ever paid is 99p Good old premiere ❤

[@robinscontainergarden]

Good old Premier! They've adjusted their prices recently, have you noticed? Not bad, though - just 10p on most things. Still a bargain 😃

Great video Robin, thanks for the tips. 59p would be the least I've ever paid for a packet of seeds.

[@robinscontainergarden]

Thanks, Linda! 59p is a great bargain! Do you remember what they were?

[@lindarobertson8505]

They were pansy seeds, my husband's favourite flower.

@@lindarobertson8505 I love my pansies 💗 I have some beautiful black ones.

[@lindarobertson8505]

@Robin's Container Garden I bought some black pansy seeds on Friday!

[@robinscontainergarden]

@@lindarobertson8505 Mine started out kind of purple, then as they matured, they were a beautiful shiney black. Just gorgeous 🥰

Funny, you don't sound Scottish? lol I'm going to follow you because I plan on doing quite a bit of container gardening this year, but we still have snow on the ground here in Wisconsin and it was 9 degrees Fahrenheit this morning! My channel isn't just about gardening, but I hope you'll it as look see as well!

[@robinscontainergarden]

I'm originally from Arkansas, but have lived in Scotland since 2008. What are you planning to grow in your containers this year?

[@HomeCityHomeLife]

@@robinscontainergarden Well, the standard tomato's and pepper's for sure. After that, I'm not sure. I have an assortment of heirloom seeds. I'd like to try growing strawberries in them perhaps.

[@robinscontainergarden]

@@HomeCityHomeLife Good luck! You'll have to keep me posted 😊

[@HomeCityHomeLife]

@@robinscontainergarden I will and I will probably make the occasional gardening video too in between all the other things I'm going to be doing this spring/summer/fall!

[@robinscontainergarden]

@@HomeCityHomeLife Enjoy! ☺️

50p is cheapest seeds I've got from Wilko and had good germination

[@robinscontainergarden]

That's cheap! Do you remember what they were?

[@mags9536]

@@robinscontainergarden I think it was Nantes carrots and money maker tomatoes. I think they cost a bit more now for those seeds but they still have some 50p seeds for beetroot and spinach and a few other veg 🙂

[@robinscontainergarden]

@@mags9536 Can't beat 50p seeds! 😊
