Hi, I'm new to this! Would anyone be kind enough to advise on the following:
- What seeds should I be planting now for early summer flowering?
- Are there any interesting spring bulbs beyond daffodils, tulips etc.?
- What grows well in clay soil?
- What's the best way of heating a greenhouse over the winter (on a budget). Heat mats, painting barrels black (?), light lamps - please explain!
- What kind of compost do seeds need? And then what do they require at the next stage? And when planting out, how much compost should go in underneath the little plant?
- It seems quite expensive to buy 'plug plants'. Could someone explain why we don't all just plant seeds?
Thank you so much for any help!
