    Everyone seems to have been busy, I'm having trouble with WiFi at home, so not  posted for a while.

    I'd started to plant stuff out as there's no room in GH. Pea's, lettuce, Pak Choi and beans, we had some snow last night though...?. 

    I have further sowings so if stuff has been lost due to frost there are more plants in reserve.

    Glad the pumpkin seeds have come up, I have some seeds bought in France, lots more seeds in the packet than British bought seeds. Seeds are sold by weight in France.

    Broad beans had frost damage but I just trimmed off the blackened leaves, hopefully they've survived.

    Going to the plot over the weekend and also plan to sow squash, courgettes and Pumpkin .

    Happy growing everyone ?
