Allotment corner: Seeds anyone?

[Mash]

I think few of us here grow stuff and the recent new washing machine got me thinking about sharing stuff.

I have some elephant garlic ..loads .. If anybody wants to grow some, I am happy to post some seeds. The next couple of months is when you need to plant garlic.

In the seed stash there is also kale, various tomatoes (inc Russian) , mixed lettuce (slug proof) & Various chilies (hot, not & huge) these are my own seed - it's too easy. So if you want any please shout up.

Please don't take me for a manic gardener - nothing could be further from the truth. Most of my varieties are plant and forget - more the idle gardener type. Which may of course involve a little foraging later in the year, If I've been really good at the idle part

I have "Jack o' Lantern" pumpkin seeds to spare, a good cross between an eater and a carver.
I have half a dozen hand-ball sized fruits, and one Medicine ball sized one this year, at that point I stopped the leaders.
I am going to carve the letters " brexit" in the large one.
Scary enough.
Shout if you would like some seeds.
