    I would like to start growing my own vegs. and have limited space so thought I would use containers and possibly one small raised bed; i should like to grown organically and start off by using some organic plug plants in various vegs. but dont want to purchase a variety box as shown in the organic catalogue. Can anyone recommend any other links I might try.

    Sorry I can't do links but there is veg plants.co.uk & vegplants.co.uk

    Good luck but be careful, you'll be digging up your flowers before you know it.

    The method you suggest is a very expensive way to go about this.

    I think I would be tempted to buy seeds of my choosing and sow a pinch or a specific number very thinly in a 3" pot ( or similar) and grow them on the window sill till planting out time.

    Many veg seed are of a size that you can space them out individually in the container to save pricking out.

    You can save the remainder of the packet for future years.

    I have been known to sow seeds up to 5 years old with some success.


    There is some info and slide shows here that will explain on how to do it



    click on pics to enlarge and titles to engage slide shows (where applicable)



    But if you want to go the way you requested do a google by entering 'vegetable plug plants'.

    or go here;
