If you've got the facilities, there's no problem

You can start off chillies, peppers, tomatoes, aubergines etc., as you have somewhere to put them once grown. Some are tempted to start early then find they have nowhere to put the plants as it still too cold.

Brassicas are forbidden in heated propagators,  but you knew that.  ;)

The temptation has been to much for me, got early beets showing already ::) Will put small poly tunnel up on salad bed this week, with all this sunshine should warm the ground up lovely . hopefully in enough time to put beets out in a cpl of weeks and some early carrots under the same cover, see how the weather goes
