weeds and winter

[pebbles]

Hi all
Just want to know in the winter time will weeds grow in a greenhouse?
Sorry if it is a thick question lol

as long as you water them a little then yes, they will still grow. If its a heated greenhouse they will grow quicker than if its NOT heated.

I don't have a greenhouse - would keeping them on a windowsill be ok?

Yes a windowsill is perfect.

I am having trouble growing any weeds so thats why i've invested in a green house (only a small one) lol. I thought I was the only one who couldn't grow weeds lol.
So I have just brought a load of new seeds and i'm gonna try again fingers crossed.

My danilions took ages to show any signs of life but are just starting to emerge and some of the mixed seeds are popping through too. I'll be so glad when I can start to use them rather than looking like a nutter picking the weeds locally.

Plantain seem really easy to grow if you are having problems - they came up really quickly, just waiting for them to get to a decent size to move them into a bigger pot, so I would try them if you are having problems, if I can grow them being the most ungreenfingered person in the world I am sure that you will too - good luck!

I dont know what you lot are doing no one seems to have any luck.

Im my garden in trays, i have milk thistle (huge things), vetch (HUGE) mallow, dandlions, forget me knots etc etc

I just use cheap unfertilized soil in a tray put the seeds down then cover them a little with soil and them water them every other day depending on temperature, if really hot i water every day.

You must have green fingers!! Although I am getting very encouraged by the spurting of green shoots at the moment!
