I've sowed sweet peas and hellebores .....meant to sow some hibiscus but just remembered they are still sitting in a pot of water. Instructions said soak seeds till they either float or sink (can't remember which way round) there's some of each .....anyway I forgot they were in there ....

If I start my celeriac now, any ideas when they will be ready for harvest, I want them as late as poss. Will there be another good day for planting them or is that it??

[VirginVegGrower]

There will be plenty of other opportunities for celeriac. Readiness of crop will be dependant on weather, soil fertility and watering so impossible for me to second guess. I have sown mine, believing that I will be ready to transplant late April/May again depends on weather.

About every 9-10 days the cycle comes round again.
