Ive definately found mixing carrot seed with sand helps me to keep it well thinned

"I think the carrot infinitely more fascinating than the geranium. The carrot has mystery. Flowers are essentially tarts. Prostitutes for the bees. There is, you'll agree, a certain je ne sais quoi oh so very special about a firm young carrot" Withnail and I

Thick miner alert. :?
Do you mix the seed with sand before you plant it? :oops:

Cloches for the lettuce.:)




Some ropey owd taters I slung in. Don't know if I earthed them up enough.



Some brassicas, not sure which and some dwarf beans. You may be able to see the dividing lines between method 1 and 2.:D




Leeks, radish, carrot and beetroot. Definitely in method 2 ground. I fear the couch grass will win. :(
in the tips section of the site it says if you plant turnips it will get rid of couch grass. Has anyone tried it?



Flowers on my toms. Quite pleased 'cos these were shoved behind my mates shed for 6 weeks, untended, unwanted and unloved. just £2 a month could save these...... sorry, getting carried away there.


Red Iceberg seedlings. Aren't my workshoes well polished.:)



Toms in the conservatory.


1/4 dug.:( or should it be :)


My neighbour Eddie's onions. Are there any copyright issues on photoing someone elses onions? :shock:
