We are not a farming advisory service. For commercial advice please contact your local Agricultural Department. We supply Traditional Open Pollinated seed for home gardeners and information supplied is done so in good faith. We take no responsibility for its accuracy. This seed planting guide is only a general reference. For more information consult gardening books or magazines; local knowledge is invaluable.

Seed depth is governed by the size of seed. Usually one to two times seed thickness. For spacing try to imagine the space taken up by mature plants. Sow accordingly or more thickly and thin out later. Some, mostly small seeds, require raising as seedlings and transplanting, others, mostly large seeds, prefer to be direct sown.

Variables such as soil types, fertility soil temperature, climatic conditions and cultural practices all have different effects on growth response of seeds. Local knowledge is invaluable. In milder climates, in sheltered town gardens and by the sea, where there are milder conditions including no frost, allow plantings later and earlier.

HERBS require similar conditions to vegetables. We can give no one ideal set of growth conditions. As a general guide most require a sunny position, moist and well drained, mulched, mostly fertile weed-free soil, protected from frost and wind.

📧 How to Ensure Emails from Our Online Shop Always Land in Your Gmail or any other email provider's Inbox and Aren't Marked as Spam or Blocked:

  1. Add the Sender to your Google or any other email provider's contacts. We can't help you if your settings are not like this. Contact your email provider for help.

    • Step 1: Open Gmail and find an email from us xxxxxxxxxxxx@xxx.com
      Do not try to send us an email directly to this address; we will not receive it. Every contact is exclusively through the contact form in our online shop!
      If you can’t find our email, it might have been blocked. In that case, proceed with Step 4 below.

    • Step 2: Hover over the sender’s name or email address at the top of the email.

    • Step 3: Click the "Add to Contacts" icon (the little person icon).

    This will help Gmail recognize us as a trusted sender, ensuring our emails go straight to your inbox and not to spam.

  2. Create a Filter to Prevent Emails from Being Marked as Spam or Blocked

    • Step 1: Open Gmail and click on the gear icon in the top-right corner, then select "See all settings".

    • Step 2: Go to the "Filters and Blocked Addresses" tab.

    • Step 3: Click "Create a new filter".

    • Step 4: In the "From" field, enter the email address you want to whitelist (e.g., our shop’s email).

    • Step 5: Click "Create filter".

    • Step 6: In the next window, check the box labeled "Never send it to Spam".

    • Step 7: Click "Create filter" to save.

    This will ensure our emails always land in your inbox and won’t get marked as spam or blocked by mistake.
