Cinnamon Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 The one you buy in a bag rather than the one you make yourself I sowed some sweet peppers a couple of weeks ago which are doing really well,but I used a cheapish compost & have found that heaps of little Lemon Balm seedling have also come up Has anyone else had an unexpected 'bonus' crop from their shop bought compost?

Olly Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Last year I sowed a packet of catnip seeds, and it was only when I came to pinch out my flourishing little seedlings that I realised the whole lot were lemon balm! Now, I was blaming Thompson & Morgan for a mislabelled packet ... but I'm wondering if it was the compost after all. One thing I don't need in my garden is any more lemon balm, you never get rid of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjp Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I've had weed seedling come up in a seed compost before now that why I only use a multi purpose one was it a peat free one by any chance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
