Also took the potted apricot tree to the allotment and put it in the tunnel, where it has one last chance to produce something edible next year (which will be its 8th year).

Tuesday jobs (weather permitting)
The original plan was to plant out some of the tomatoes and move the rest to the greenhouse, but tonight's forecast temperature from some of the models is 2 so I am holding fire and hoping the indoor ones don't get burnt from being too close to the lights.

Also moved the buckets of onions and planted out tomatoes under a cloche, and planted some beans in a pot near the arch as both were simply too big to leave any longer. The beans were supposed to go to the allotment, but as the last lot I planted there was simply a snail snack, I decided on a change of plan.
