I think a lot of people will be fooled into sowing stuff too early this year because of last year. Last year was last year because it did not stop raining during May, June and July and when it did stop in August, the sun still did not come out. It shone for a while in September so things started to produce then and everybody thought I must have been late getting it in.

It's tempting to jump the gun and sow stuff when it's horrible weather and we can't get to the plot. Not wasting seed though by sowing too early. March will soon be here so just got to be patient

I have now sown a tray full of sweet peas in loo rolls .... and I'm warming up the compost in prop. for chillis, aubs and lemon grass. Life is cool

my chillies and aubs are going dead leggy in the house Dom so don't be too hasty

Done it

I decided to repot some of the leggy ones into deeper compo and managed to mix em all up. All were labelled individually to avoid confusion but then ...

I vowed this year to be brilliantly organised with my labelling Been cutting up milk bottles like a dervish, sharpened me pencil

I ain't

You aint what?

Brilliant organised
Cutting up milk bottles for labels
Sharpening pencils
Repotting leggy seedlings

I think he means that he's being a girlie swat and waiting patiently for march

and yes, I know he'll laugh last when all my leggy seedlings succumb to the dreaded damping off virus

I had to..... made me feel gooooood But as per Tara's advice , kept some seeds for later though in case it goes pear-shaped

I started peppers and aubergines yesterday. A couple of weeks later than last year. They were fine then so hope for same this year

I can't find my aubergine seed. It came attached to the front of a KG mag and sort of floated around for while. Haven't seen it for ages now.

If you don't manage to find I have some left of the ones i giot from same magazine, also have over 600seeds of one called Viserba which I got from T&M (Taste of Italy) range. Your more than welcome to have some

They'll be attached to your cardi

Okay, will sort them out tomorrow

Wooo hooo - thanks Plum, they arrived today and shall be sown on Saturday.

Your welcome, popped in some of the one I got from Lidl last year. A slimmer one, quite a few seeds in that packet too

Spent a happy afternoon sowing stuff Tomatilloes, toms, parsley, artichokes and lettuces
Aubs and some chillis have hatched already

Been repotting leggy seedlings today Dom When will we ever learn Lots of no-show aubs Oh well Ade told us so
