Onions, leeks, chillies, sweet peppers, tomatoes, rocket and mizuna, parsley (all indoors/in the greenhouse.)

Garlic and shallots planted direct 3-4 weeks ago.

Might plant out the spuds and sow parsnips amd sugarsnap peas at the weekend if the cold spell isn't forecast to be too prolonged.............
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!
