Thanks all for these interesting comments and fine results, one of the greatest joys of gardening to save your own seeds.
Rhys you are so meticulous, congrats.
Another aspect to saving seed is how plants are then a little more adapted to your local conditions, and stronger for it. The Grenoble Red lettuce whose seed I have saved for about ten years is having it’s best winter yet, though it’s also hard to judge because of variable weather. It will be interesting to check leaf quality when we pick this week as all plants in tunnel and greenhouse were frozen last week.
So do try lettuce next! Only one plant needed, best undercover unless it’s a fine summer!
