Any time if the bed is small and you can do it without standing on the soil, otherwise best to wait until the soil is fairly dry to avoid compacting it too much (standing on a scaffold board or similar to spread your weight helps.)
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older

You want to give your eathworms a severe talking to, they should have had it all pulled down below ground level by now!     :lol:     Cheers,     Tony.

I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
