Salad Plug Plants

[geacher]

Can anyone let me know of the best place online to buy salad plug plants, im looking for maybe a wholesale place so i can buy about a hundred of 4/5 different types of salad heads at a time and put them in my polytunnel.

Last year i grew my own from plug but im worried i will struggle this year with new job and new baby. Im thinking salads such as batavia, loola rosso and oak leaf.

Any advice would be great.

Hi Geacher,
Here's a couple of links

I grow my own, but in your situation might try these

Best advice is don't bother. Use the money to invest in your own modules. You'll buy all you need with compost and seeds and still have change to pay the baby sitter.

I find delfland's plug plants really good - organicplants.co.uk
They may not be cheaper than growing your own but when you've got a baby and a job, they're a life saver!

There's a place near the Tregothnan tea plantation in Cornwall that do an amazing selection at a very good price. I'll find their details out and post them on the forum. Their main business is bulbs but they've been doing plug plants for a few years now.

I would also recommend Delfland. I have used them for a few years now and they consistently send out good, healthy plants. You can go for their selection pack, which gives you about 10 plants each of the varieties you are looking for. Or you can "pick and mix" in smaller quantities. They also send you an e-mail when they are posting them, so you know to expect them.
