Seed sowing thread 2024.

Yesterday I sowed twenty-one varieties of tomato in eighty cells,some seeds quite old I haven’t grown before.

Today I sowed two big pots of avola peas direct outside & one big pot of Charlotte potatoes. Indoors a cell tray of firebird & alumia vanilla french marigolds. Three little pots of white Lisbon spring onions.

Took the plunge and got started on Monday (weather being so dark wet & rubbish I've held off on everything except chillies until now).

Have sown Wild Rocked (Tricia), Broad Bean (Aquadulce Claudia), Brussel Sprouts (cheap un-named), Calabrese (Atlantis), Mangetout (Carouby de Maussane), Perpetual Spinach, Cabbage (Golden Acre).

More broadies & mangetout to be sown at the weekend (ran out of inclination & space - mostly couldn't be bothered to fish around for another load of appropriately-sized modules). Must sow some lettuce & sunflowers too. If I can motivate myself with the looroll inners, there are parsnips on the cards for the weekend too.

I've put some Cucumber 'Marketmore' & Squash 'Uchiki Kuri' seed to chit this afternoon (to check they will germinate but mostly to give them a head start as I'm unlikely to be inclined to sort out pots for properly sowing them until the weekend)

Sowed four pots of one ball courgette,four pots of atena polka courgette & seven pots of honey bear squash.
