I'd try again And like Imp says, they need warmth to germinate, did you sow them indoors?

I sowed butternut squash two weeks ago in my mini GH inside the unheated GH and they're only just peeping through as of yesterday. Ditto sweetpeas. Not tried courgettes yet and am wondering whether to sow french beans yet or not - it's still going down to near freezing in there some nights...

No French beans yet but I sowed the runners today

Hmm. You're darn sarf as well. Might hold off a bit then. I sowed em on 25/3 last year, but it was a lot warmer I think.

My courgettes have germinated now
Butternut squash, I did those about a month ago and they came up quite quickly and are growing steadily. I also had a couple of Burgess Buttercup squash seeds from a swap. One of those has germinated and is growing like mad! It's on a really sunny windowsill but is getting massive so I hope it warms up outside soon before it outgrows the house

I've got lettuce cabbage and peppers well up now oh and toms

Well Dom, this evening I've sowed some cobra beans in loo rolls in the GH.

Also potted on french marigolds and red cabbage into modules and Josh sowed some minipops as well My potimarrons are up (ta Flo - where is she??) and have sage and flat-leaf parsley seedlings too (ta Wards) My solitary cucumber's looking a bit sorry for itself, a couple of leaves are a bit yellow round the edges. I think it might be feeling the cold, so that'll be coming into the house tomorrow

... and I planted more onion sets I was given

im afraid my window sills are groaning loobs mind you we have made astart on the gh we got everything out of the boxes and put all the parts in there order but then the heavens opened so its all in me shed at the moment waiting for good weather

aren't we all

Big shed Ht's got

When my GH was delivered I made sure it was all stacked in the garage - gave OH the incentive to erect it ASAP so he got his playroom back

Today I've planted out some more tomatoes, a few chilli's and some cukes

Water saving plans are in full flow (pardon the pun) - am taking the u bend off the upstairs sinks and putting buckets underneath - looks ugly - but every little counts

I bet your wife will be thrilled The first time you're watering with said bucket will be when someone empties the sink Are you collecting butts of water from your gutters etc?

But there's no rain

I bet there is. I bet it would rain right off if I went there

It rained in Corsica when I went there Err.... it NEVER rains in Corsica

Happened to me in Cyprus

MY greenhouse id filled to bursting. Got frost protection at night, don't think I will have next year. Think the bill might be a bit of a shock

I turned mine off weeks ago as some misery guts was complaining

What a waste

Yep it is Plum.

Been planting out more chilli's cukes, toms and Cape gooseberries
