Have planted my first veg out :D  :lol:  :D

I was so excited that I had to ring my mom and dad to to tell somone :oops:

Built 2 coldframes out of old window frames and planted some lettuce and radishes in 1. Plan to use the second to harden off the plants I'm starting at home.

Building sledges to stand pots ect on round my shed for the flowers and toms. Hope to slow down the slugs  :!:

Just had to share this feeling with you all.

Lulu :tongue2:

Good for you!
Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.
