Wow you've all been so busy, I sat last weekend and ordered my seeds and was going to spend this weekend researching which ones needed a chill and I could sow.
I'm so glad the days are drawing out but still very wary of the threatened snow so I think I'm going to wait a couple of weeks. I made a few mistakes last year and was too late for most things and had some lovely toms but they never rippened so decided to keep a journal this year to make sure I keep notes (or try to) and learn by my mistakes.
My tomatos ars doing well. I had a look at loads of different pages and they said i was ok to plant in january. Even this site said do it between jan and march. They have slowed down so very happy
My neighbour is growing under light in his greenhouse and being a nosey parker lol I had to ask,, orchids that take 2 years to mature (I have to say I have greenhouse envy lol).
Well I've dragged oout the seedling compost, vermiculite and perlite and I'm away larkspur need to chill and I have some granny bonnets so I'm getting wrapped up and going out to play

Glad to hear it.

Sam-I know you won't believe me -but tomatoes-January for heated greenhouse, March for cold green house, April for growing outside
But good luck to you anyway
I did read that larkspur need to be 'chilled' to germinate so sowing ahoy
11.30 and I haven't even been out to check the greenhouse yet. Or fill the bird feeders.
