I have sown various seeds,,


Coriander... Oregano... Rosemary... Basil...


All sown in Fresh New compost ..


Nothing seems to be germinating...


Also seeds from Chillies and Peppers..


Placed on window ledge and pots covered with cling film like mini gtreen houses.


How long do seeds take to germinate ??

You can Google likely germination times


You can also Google how long each type of seed remains viable. They should have a "sow by" date on the packet, but some will still be viable long after this


Did you water them after you sowed them? Also, they don't need a lot of compost on top, just a sprinkling


Rosemary is usually grown from cuttings, not seeds, in fact I didn't even know you could get rosemary seeds!

    • At it's peak I recall 16 Furkin pubs, all brewing their own.    The first pub was the Goose, followed by the Ferret, the wonderful Pheonix, Fox and one other, not necessarily in that order, when I discovered them. I did all 16 on public transport in one day with a group many years ago, if Guinness had a record this would be one, as everyone else would hire a minibus. Reverting to Wiki, it maxed out with 19 home brew pubs, and many more not brewing before the end: chain was established in 1979 by David Bruce as Bruce's Brewery, the Firkin Brewery grew as a chain of mostly brewpubs offering cask ale. It was acquired by Midsummer Leisure in 1988, Stakis Leisure in 1990 and then by Allied Domecq in 1991; by 1995 the chain had 44 pubs, 19 of which brewed beer on site.[1] In 1999, Punch Taverns bought the entire chain and the rights to the Firkin brand,[2] and then sold 110 of the pubs to Bass, leaving 60 Firkin pubs under Punch ownership.[3] The brewery side of the chain was wound up, and in March 2001 Punch announced that the Firkin brand was to be discontinued.[4]
