A seed sowing kind of day.
HelenHaricot on Apr 7th 2006
Firslty I potted up the plug plants that came today. They’re lavender, and came with a seed order from T and M. When I say, I, I actually mean my elder daughter for most of them. She did it very nicely too.
I then potted on a few of the tomatoes, and fiddled with the positioning of things within and wtihout the propagator. The pea and brassica previous sowings have now gone to the unheated greenhouse to start hardening off.
So for sowing, there was peas Misty and oregon sugarpod, first sowing of florence fennel victoria, a repeat sowing of brocolli ‘wok broc’ , romanescu and cauliflower autumn giant, and mixed lettuce.
We are full to the gunnels again.
our 150 year old grape vine has started sprouting. so hopefully a good crop this year. This winter was the first time we have ever pruned a grape vine, so we are pleased to see signs of life!
