      Cleaned plant labels found lots from previous years no wonder I was running short.

        Yesterday I potted on one sallisaw cafe & four Jaune flamme tomato seedlings,they’ve got their first true leaf,really small,there’s loads more to pot on today,going shopping with mum soon so after that I’ll come home to do more,growing plants is so laid back,no rush,can fit in around everything else,it might feel overwhelming at the time but a little a day gets the jobs done

          Planted my charlotte potatoes, moved courgettes out of the h/propagator onto a bedroom window sill now they've popped up their heads.
          Then potted up basil, parsley and more coriander.

          edited to say I planted the last of my module sown lettuce into troughs.

            Potted on my outdoors tomatoes, the last of the peppers, and my litchi tomato seedlings.
            Shredded all of my garden prunings and the brassica stems from the allotment.

                Planted 7 tomatoes in 7 varieties in GH No2's beds. Potted on cucumbers, chillis and peppers. Reassembled some staging. set up the fan heater on a thermostat in GH No1 for the next few cold nights because the heated propagators aren't big enough, now that I've re-potted things.

                Didn't get around to mowing the pocket handkerchief lawn.

                      Chitting some really old Beth alpa cucumbers, just so I can say I tried and then throw the packet out.
                      Sowed lots of seeds.
                      Did the tomato shuffle as we finally had some sunshine to warm the greenhouse, looks like that's the only day for the rest of this week though.
                      Earthed up my first earlies, that were just starting to poke through, as we might get a touch of frost tonight.
                      Fleeced the bag of second earlies in the greenhouse.

                      Nestled somewhere in the Cambridgeshire Fens. Good soil, strong winds and 4 Giant Puffballs!

                        Planted out all my sweetpeas, much later than usual.
                        Potted on some of my tomatoes.
                        Potted on my dahlias which I grew from seeds.

                        And when your back stops aching,
                        And your hands begin to harden.

                          Thanks for that. I was wondering when to do it. I'll do it on Tuesday (Met Office says we'll get drowned tomorrow).

                            Mark, I usually dow my sweetpeas in late autumn. Overwinter them in the greenhouse and plant them out at the end of March or first week in April.

                            And your hands begin to harden.
