Stagbeetle maybe the seed compost needs more air and are they a bit damp? if bigger seed you could rub over the surface to remove it rub it away
May I just point out that the fruit trees may be to close to each other as they can get big ish, the last pic looks like a dogwood - cornus to me or a tree
You have done really well lots of digging done there, you have daffs in flower thanks for the pictures
Definitely put some canes and string around your plot, may be a sign up saying digging in action or your newbie all advice welcome or your plot no

Stagbettle , I also think your compost could be a bit damp
i sieve some ordinary compost for seeds and add a bit of verimiculia for drainage
I would definaetly put in some posts , string and tie on anything to show your boundary a parked car will really compact the ground
