Buying a plant in a 9cm pot on the left
2lt on the right we use
Being 6 x the size buying a plant can be considerably cheaper in a 2lt you can divide in to 6 or more sections so wanting a lot plants think division
Count how many plants you can get out it

We may hate winter some seeds need the cold to break the dormancy of the seeds known as stratification
This can be frustrating when takes wks for that first seed to appear a total joy tho when it shows its cotyledons leaves first to break the surface of the compost its like a present been given
