Seed Sowing thread 2019

[Paulieb]

I sowed around 100 tomato seeds yesterday afternoon,some are old seeds & a few might not germinate,there’s 22 varieties.

I sowed loads of tom seeds the other week, some of which were from the 2012 seed swap. Typical that they all popped up and now I will end up trying to grow a million tomato plants, when I have room for about 20.

Have any of the more northerly growers started peas in the greenhouse yet? Am growing aldermans for the first time and quite keen to get going soon.

Not yet, I'm trying to pace myself and I've run out of compost
