Sowed spring onions, lettuce,radish on plot yesterday. It was a lovely day. Today it started raining 3pm it is now 10.26pm and the rain is still bouncing down, not holding out for any crop they will be washed away. Will not direct sow again.

They sow themselves under the same conditions. You may yet be pleasantly surprised

It was warm Welsh rain, a very rare liquid that will give them a great start !

 A couple of years ago we had torrential rain just after I'd sowed my carrots.  They all came up, albeit in a very wavy line a couple of feet from where I'd sowed them.  I had a fantastic crop, so I would give up hope yet.
