Are they Lottie! Cool. I must admit, I knew I was taking a chance with these. We never sowed the seeds until the end of May, Is that how long they will take now Geoff??
I was having a tin barf-but it may be another month at least this is the problem with outside growing you at the mercy of the elements-but on the upside- you grew them
If you allow six weeks or so from sowing to going outside you are not far away-next year sow mid-April-your mates will be here to talk you through-what happens next is weather related
Yeah, I made a few rookie mistakes this year to be honest. Everything was sown late, and indoors. I must have had 100 or so pots all over the house, of peppers, tomatoes, lettuce, strawberries, sweetcorn, onions, sunflowers and kiwi. Most veg was sown directly outside, the carrots, cauli, brocolli and cabbage,but still late.
I'm not doing that again next year. Everything is being started outside. I couldn't breathe for pots all around me!
I have a draw full of seed packets ready to sow next year, 30 Box seeds that have to go in the fridge in December for 3 months and I also have 100 Daffodil bulbs coming from teBay.
Hopefully me potting shed (Old outside toilet down the garden) will have its new roof with B.I.Y. skylight

Geoff yes, but they about the size of garden peas!
Becks, my tomatoes are about that size as well. That is, on the plants that haven't got blight!
I like the emblem - a bit like our village emblem which has a crossed fork and spade.
Quite grey here today.
It will be nice to have ripe tomatoes on Christmas morning

Ha ha ha. Well I had to check. My first year and all. Haven't a clue about how long stuff takes.

You need a mini greenhouse or something similar-shortly places like Wilkinsons reduce their gardening stuff -that is the time to buy.
