Hi Mandy,

Don't want to hijack the thread, but couldn't resist saying hello to someone we'd been missing.

Fine here thanks, apart for seasonal bugs.

Please don't stay a stranger,  I'm sure showing the strength you can find will help others.

well, I know I'm daft, but Ive put about 200 peas in guttering.  I couldnt resist any longer PG!

tired of waiting. and daring to take risk. I have a raised bed in front patio waiting for some plants (i can see cat paw marks in the morning) I am going to put some spinach seeds 3 varieties i have and cover it with fleece today or tomorrow.

I reckon they might stick their nose up eventually....

I usually try mine out indoors in those wonderful paper-pots and, once they are up, stick them in the soil when no one is looking

I'm not sure what you mean by peas in guttering, i have a pack of 300 Ambassador but not sure what to do

i have planted my tomatoes and getting my patch ready for some runner beans. I cant decide what i like more with these, the actual beans or the flowers? lol

Just planted some tomato seeds in small pots

[plum crumble]

my window sills are full of sprouting cabbages, caulies, sprouts, toms, cuc, aubergine, chillies, lettuce (well, the trays on the sills  ) and my greenhouse has in modules 200 onions, shallots, garlics. Then there are the 100 parsnips in Richys magic paper pots. Then there's the spuds chitting, which might well go in this weekend...............HURRAH

Still getting very heavy frosts here so don't want to chance planting anything out yet :blink:

I have just planted my onion sets and garlic under cloches.  I started the garlic off indoors.  Pepper seedlings and tom seedlings on the go indoors.

Mine are Early Onward variety. I just got some guttering pipe and sowed seeds in that, ready to slide straight into a trench at my lotty.  I struggle with mice stealing pea seeds if direct sown into the lotty soil, plus my seeds are more protected from the weather at home, aiding germination.

Plum crumble those window sills must be massive

Lots of potatoes chitting away happily.
Garlic in the ground - I'd started it off in pots outside as I hadn't dug the bed!
Last week started off some toms in the propagator.
Also broad beans and cabbage in root trainers and leeks in cat litter tray, in a DD styleee.
Lots and lots to do but it's too cold and I haven't got a greenhouse... and anyway most of the plot still needs digging  :blink:
