The seed sowing thread 2014!!

[Noosner]

Betroot - Sanguina and Touchstone Gold
Spring onion - White Lisbon
Parsnip - Tender and True

Ooh, I'm trying Sanguina this year MrsC. Let me know how you get on

[MrsCordial]

For sure, and let me know how you get on too. I planted some gold ones a few weeks ago but this is my first Sanguina sowing so it's going to be a wee while *drums fingers*.

I sowed some more cucumbers because the fungus gnats killed my first three plants. :-( This is the first year I've had so much trouble with them and I will certainly be more prepared next year!

Planted mine about a fortnight ago... should see something soon!

[MrsCordial]

Jake I started mine in a cell tray and have now potted them on. They're essentially inside by a window, but often get a few hours outside on a bench with an old window pane over it.

put mine in small individual pots in a propagator. The poor things outgrew them a couple of weeks ago and have some very yellow lower leaves. Only just managed to pot on yesterday.

Youngest Granddaughter and I sowed two containers of salad, beans, courgettes, pumpkin, tomatoes and shoved a few sprouted potatoes into tater bags at the top of the garden, just to see if they grow! I sowed more peas as the plants looked like lace curtains

Sowed 50 Sundance sweetcorn in book root trainers today, I'll pick the best 30 to plant on in early june.

Parsnips .. 3 short rows in the ground and some on the window sil in wet tissue paper - an attempt to chit! ( those seeds had been though my washing machine in my jeans pocket so I'll be impressed if they sprout! ) My husband loves parsnips and so do the kids., I don't think it would be possible to grow too many

[batman]

Sowed three rows of carrots, two of fennel, one each of spinach and chard.

[Martin H]

Started chitting some sweet corn, french beans and runner beans in case I need them to replace failed earlier sowings.

[Bex]

Sweetcorn because my last lot keeled over, peas trying successional sowing to prolong season. A row of French breakfast radish.

20 types of "crisp" lettuces - about 100 seeds in total.
Hope they don't all mature at the same time
