I hate picking them amd i think my spot may be a bit sunny/dry. They often go over quite quickly.
I'm sowing mine this week. Ive chosen a spencer variety - but will also sow a few home saved ones. I tend to keep mine in the greenhouse but i have read recently that an autumn sowing will do better in a cold frame... I may try a little bit of both to compare.
I always presprout mine on kitchen towel in a plastic tub - due to mice issues Same - presprout mine on kitchen roll. That’s how I know that all the Earl Grey sprouted - and most of the Hi-Scent rotted away!
mine go under old glazing panels for the winter. Under glazing panels in pots or planted out? I have some glazing panels... In pots - three to each pot.
