The twitchy grower's thread

[Florence Fennel]

Oops, I forgot, I sowed some caulis in loo rolls. They haven't made it anyway, I think it's a bit too warm in my house for them.

[miffy]

I am a twitching but no where as yet to plant anything and my greenhouse if full of the things I rescued off my plot before I vacated it. Think I may only be growing things in pots this year as need to sort out the garden, I use that term loosely, building site is a better description!! So yes am twitching and need a fix of veggie growing to ease that itch!!

[Jeanied]

All I have done so far this winter is sow a few broadies on the lottie - most of them have made it through the worst of the winter. I'm sitting here twitching ...

[binley100]

I've had to make a table out of crates and hardboard in the conservatory ....Broadies, cauli and onions in the blowaway. Toms, aubs, chilli seedlings in the conservatory along wilth some pretty things , leeks and more onions ........ Smug? ......Who me ???????

[Bramble_killer]

i have sown nothing yet.

But that is because I go away on sunday for 2 weeks so it's full steam ahead when I return. (and it will rain every day for a month after that to annoy me)

[jojo2910]

A few things sown, I've been scared to sow as I thought it too early. But I shall be sowing with earnest this weekend and next. Cannot wait.

[SarzWix]

Not twitchy, more like panicky! Yet again, I am really behind schedule I've managed to sow some onions, but they're totally neglected poor things, and none of the chillies, peppers or toms have been started yet, I haven't finished the digging, the greenhouses (3 of) all need clearing and cleaning, the porch/potting station is covered in junk, I haven't ordered any onions or garlic, and, I'm 2 weeks behind on the reading for my course... What am I doing on here?!

[Newbie]

Anyone else like me itching to get sowing, but haven't sown a single thing yet?

Yup, i'm itching too (you can get lotion for that yer know!) Can't really sow anything until i get around to buying some compost, oh .. and clearing out the greenhouse, and cleaning it, and jet washing the patio that it stands on before that, and and and .......

[LittleShamrock]

Itching here too! I've bought all the seeds I'm planning to buy (no doubt will end up with more though ), pots and compost, all ready to go....just waiting for the end of March. Will maybe sow a few things in a couple of weeks time but my teeny back yard gets very little sun so I really do have to wait until its higher in the sky.

Theres still lots of pots of dead plants sitting out there from last year, they need to be cleared before I start or it'll all end uo a terrible mess again

[buzzingtalk]

I am itching to get started but haven't done anything yet due to 70+ hour week at work the last few weeks...got 4 days off next week though so will be sowing stuff indoor on the windowsill - toms, chillis, strawbs from seed.

[piskieinboots]

Can I have itching and twitching and smugish?

[pauco]

I had a week off this week, so just to calm the nerves, i have been busy clearing the patch for my Onion sets, good dig over and fresh compost in and dug over again + filled up a few big tubs for them too, seem to have bought more than i thought Seed trays got ready in greenhouse for sweet-Peppers, and a few tomato seeds, mostly i buy the plants so all in all a good week. Back too work Mon for 4 days, then off for another week.

paul.

[becslb]

not done a thing yet Greenhouse still full of dh's garage stuff while he rebuilds wall/ reroof's - pretty much done but greenhouse not emptied and he broke a pane of glass am twitchy..very twitchy lol!!

[HeyWayne]

It would be fair to say, that this week, I will be mostly anxious.

Twitch, twitch, twitch.

[Parsleythelion]

I have planted some seed which I know I can and they are just showing their heads....but I keep picking seed packets out of my well stuffed seed box and checking the "planting date" just in case in the few days since I last looked, it might have miraculously changed....in never does :-(

Now that I have my allotment I have noticed the twitching is a bit more pronounced!

twitch, twitch, twitch...TWITCH (that was a big one!)
