                I grow everything from seed, I can’t afford to buy plugs etc. I haven’t included potatoes, garlic, shallots and sweet potatoes as they’re not grown from seed as such, anyway, here’s this year’s list, hope I haven’t forgotten anything.
                1 toms
                2 aubergine
                3 chillis

                Then there’s the herbs and flowers but that’s another list or two. It’s going to be another busy year

                  I must admit I am feeling rather proud of myself reviewing this. Most things are coming on well except the cape gooseberry is refusing to germinate. And the favourites are yet to be sown, squash and courgettes. (I can almost taste them )

                            6. Sweet pepper ---> Californian wonder and Traffic light sown...no sign yet. I haven't particularly coddled them, though, so what can I expect?
                            7. Beans: dwarf and climbing French beans, runner beans
                            8. Courgette
                            9. Tomato ---> Roma, Marmande, Gardeners' Delight, Blush, Yellow Pear, Violet Jasper, and Black Cherry sown...all but Blush have multiple seeds germinated. Accidentally acquired Moneymaker in my new seed multipack...
                            10. Leeks ---> Lyon 2 sown...working on about 20 sprouted at the moment.
                            11. Cabbage
                            12. Carrot ---> Autumn King 2 sown...no sign yet.
                            13. Spring onion/onion ---> White Lisbon sown, a cheap £ store variety sprouting til it can be planted out...no sign yet.
                            14. Beetroot ---> Boltardy sown...clever bunny that I am, I had been glancing down to see if any green shoots were appearing...nope, but some beet-colored shoots have...
                            15. Kale
                            16. Sweetcorn
                            17. Aubergine ---> plenty of seed unearthed and sown...no sign yet. Should probably think about treating them nicer.
                            18. Potatoes (do these count from seed potatoes?) ---> chitting upstairs
                            19. Garlic (does this count from saved bulbs?) ---> potted up until we have time to plant them out, all sprouting away...all out on the plot now.
                            20. Herbs: basil, coriander, chives, oregano ---> basil, parsley and chives sown...basil and maybe chives trying to peek through. I swear I used to have parsley coming out my ears and now it doesn't want to sprout this year or last.
                            21. Radish
                            22. Lettuce
                            23. Cucumber
                            Oops...I accidentally bought some seeds at my favorite discount supermarket while doing a weekly, panic-free shop. Now I have to add lettuce, radish, and cucumber to my list. More sowing on the cards for the next couple of days.
