I have had great success with supermarket parsley and coriander, while my Garden centre mint did not do very well. I got about 15-20 individual plants from each over-crowded pot. Good luck with it :)
Apple mint & chocolate mint hot water leave 5 mins top up with cold water. Every year we buy the individual garlic from lidles plant the largest eat the smaller ones, costs us just over a fiver (.39 pence each ) onion seeds sown on boxing day.
people say dont plant mint in the ground , well i dont disagree or agree id rather say depends how much of it you actually want! i use alot so i grow it in a bed and let it grow wild i get at least 3 harvests a year and keep it tidy and pruned , i freeze some and dry some for teas and bath products it has so many uses! i still make herbal bath tea bags with mint and epsomsalts and other herbs ! list is endless!!
I bought Radar and Snowball onion sets this year from the Range, £2.49 each net of 50 or 3 for £5 so I had to have the last lot for 2p 😜 Don't fill those milk cartons to the top with water or they will split when they freeze 😯 Have a fun week Graeme 🤗

It’s gonna freeze tonight!! Could be a calamity on the plot tomorrow 😂😂
try Moroccan mint its amazing mixed with green tea. compost is my big spend on the plot
I got my onion and garlic sets from simply seed, they were £2.69 a bag :)
That’s good value. I’d not heard of them before but I’ve made a note of them for future purchases 😊
Mint like wet and will spread every where
Yes deffo, that’s why I put it in a growing sack 👍
I've had it escape bags. Sent root through the bag. If it can get to dirt anyway it will.
Should get at least 20 new plants from that mint mate if you split it all up instead of stucking the whole thing in the pot you used.
Cracking idea! Love that. More tea …
