Around two weeks back, now potted on enjoying our spring sunshine.

or even not yet!!  For the out door growers yet.  Thinking about the next week or so when gotten round to potting up sweetcorn and courgette plants.
Sweetcorn - is it that time already?

I hope not, or I've missed the boat - as well as courgettes.

Both not until the middle of next month for me.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

Sowed some Sunday just gone.  they are in unheated greenhouse, inside an old aquarium with glass over the top and covered in plastic!  hopefully some will come through, if not, there's plenty of time left!

sowed mine on the 14th March, still waiting for a few to germinate.
Black Cherry always seems to take a long while, so I won't panic yet  :nowink:

Today! I have put them in a heated propogator. Somehow managed to have seven varieties, sowed a few of five. I need them to be strong plants for when we go on holiday mid May, will bury the pots in the veg patch and hope there isn't a drought and they survive.
