Sure enough, I start everything with good intentions and already plans are thwarted by my cat and slugs. My cat has peed on my carrots that are just emerging in my table top raised bed as well as putting dirty great feet marks in the compost, destroying some. Ditto for spring onions. My greenhouse is shredded as he keeps clawing his way up it to be able to sit on the roof in the warm. I put cains, netting, plastic watering can on the top and still he is adamant to get on it. Spinach sewed in cool, damp and sheltered raised bed have still not emerged and probably wont just like last year and the year before.
My chard in the garden (something I always find very hard to grow) emerged along with the spilt bird seed so I couldn't tell the difference which ws which. Now all have been eaten bar one plant and thats after treating with slug nematodes.
And to top it all it's like ruddy winter out there.
