I did just that last year and the little 'bugs of slugs' still ate every one and I planted at least twelve !

I've just planted my sunflower seedlings. I start them off in toilet roll tubes filled with compost and once they are growing well I transplant to garden, tube and all. I also have hundreds of slugs and snails so I cut the bottom off the clear 2 litres plastic drinks bottles and use them as a cloche to protect the seedlings from being eaten.( also take the lid off.) I remove the bottle when the plant is too big for it and cross my fingers that it's big enough to withstand a bit of chewing..... and most years i keep the majority of my plants. Good Luck.

thanks...Il try tht one...Oh well! gives me and excuse to buy cola.lol!

Cut the bottom of large drinks bottles and grow the seeds through this. Mine get eaten by slugs every year. Asked a question about this a while back myself

I've done exactly the same as Gaia01 for many years and had great success. Let's hear it for the inventors of the plastic bottle!
