Tuckers' Testers 2015

2/3/2015

0 Comments

 
Those of you who tested new varieties for Tuckers last year may like to see this year's list and perhaps take part again. Anyone can become a Tucker's Tester and it is an interesting way of trialling new vegetables; in return, you report back your yields and other remarks so they can assess the performance of a variety in a wide range of real conditions.

Chris Wilson of Tuckers has emailed me to say:

"Please find attached a list of varieties that we are offering this year. If you would like to e-mail, post or fax a list of 5 or 6 varieties that you wish to trial, along with your name, and postal address, we will dispatch these to you. Please note that all seed is subject to availability at the time of request.

Once you’ve received the seeds you would like to try, we will be very grateful if you could fill in the cards with information on how they grow, yield, good and bad points, as well as photos if possible. All of this will go towards shaping the future of Tuckers Seeds and what we could be including in future catalogues.
Best Wishes;  Chris.  Web: www.tuckers-seeds.com
You can also find us on  www.facebook.com/Tuckers.Seeds or follow us at Twitter @TuckersSeeds"

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact him. The list of varieties is the document in the window below: you can scroll down to read it. Click on 'read more' to see it. Use the controls at the bottom to make the text larger.
