Title: With this weather!!
Post by: adri123 on April 01, 2014, 20:32
I'm sooooo tempted to get a cuke seed or two sown.

Anyone else?

I feel that with the heat store barrels I have in the PT I have a chance of them doing ok but know it's only 1st of April....

Anyone else starting them now?

I sowed some just over a couple of weeks back in a heated propagator, along with toms and a bunch of other stuff, but I screwed up and so far nothing has come up, so I'll have to sow again in the next few days if there's still nothing  ::)

i done my first ones a few weeks ago. and a couple more every week since. that was inside in a warm room though.

starting to get them in the tunnel now, forecast is for good overnight temp for the next 5 days. they stay in pots so i can move them in over night if needed.
