Bumper week for young Veg Plants

After the warmer than usual February, young Veg plants have already arrived in centres and they are being snapped up as soon as they go on sale. 

 

That sent Veg 2 Gro sales up 35% week on week and up 55% on the same week last year.  Could this be a bumper year for Grow your Own?

  • Quantil Strawberry Cambridge Strips were the single most popular line in the GTN Chart.
  • Quantil Tomato Gardeners Delight 8cm was just behind at No 2, one of ten tomato lines in the Top 50.
  • Farplants Mint Garden Herb was the highest placed single Herb variety, increasing sales by 11% at No 11.
