Hi all, it rained all day yesterday so my plans went to pot. Got another 8 bags of horse muck down though for my new raised beds, Sowed more sweet peas and some broad beans. Tomatoes are now ready to prick out, looking a bit leggy now not grown chick peas, might give them a try this year.
Gg, 40 gladioli bulbs were the offer with GW mag, yellows and reds. About 60 or 70 bulbs were saved from last yr, a mix of colour.
I also, spent the day sorting out the back garden. I want to make it low maintenance, the plan is to extend the lawn and take up the raised veg beds.Painted the fence today....

I have wet and dry day jobs, one of the advantages of having a GH?.
Chillies and Aubergine's are developing true leaves, they've been ever so slow and lost some to damping off. Plan to sow toms this weekend.
We've had nights of -2..But no snow in this part of Lancashire.
Good news about the GH, Scroggin, don't know what I'd do without mine, it's nearly full with seedlings at present.
Planted out more onions, garlic and shallots. Lots of gladioli bulbs and some iris which had been started in the GH.
Tulips left in from last year have flowered again and should be able to start picking rubarb soon.
Happy growing everyone ?
Scroggins, good news about g/h
Unfortunately been in hospital so no work done and still recovering , so a bit behind
However , it has been very sunny , my o/h tells me we have had frosts , still plenty of time to get sowing done
Hope alls well with everybody
GWRS get better and rest
Sorting out garden at mo - sure the weeds on the allotment are growing like mad on my plot
Scroggin good going with the GH and the muck moving
Zoomer what colour gladioli bulbs have you got?
GWRS, hope all is well.

Thanks for all your , wishes getting there , hopefully fit enough in day or so to get outside
I bought the g/w gladioli offer as well , planted them in allotment
Zoomer , why not plant raised beds in garden with ground covering plants for colour ? Just a thought
Happy gardening everybody
