        • Thursday I planted my tomato plant that had been delivered that day. It's now in a rather fancy pot that was, when I took it out of the box, was one of those flat-packed jobs, (the pot, not the plant ) . The pot's instructions resembled something off The Krypton Factor, & I am sure that the glass of wine that I was having, assisted with progress of the assembly .

          Today, I am going to start planting out seeds in one of the raised beds. So carrots, turnips, spring onions are going in, along with marigold & poached egg plants, acting as the companion plants. In the other raised bed, I am just debating if I can plant both runner & climbing beans in the same raised bed

            • A little update to the above. I've had to postpone what I was going to do today, & do it tomorrow instead. But I have watered the tomato plant though. It'll probably rain now :O

                              • Well, today, I had intended to plant the seeds that I wanted use in the raised beds. But it looks like the weather has scuppered that idea! I'm just wondering if it would be too late to plant carrot, turnip & spring onion seeds, or should I wait until mid June? I might have to do some 'fantasy veg plant online shopping', if that's the case. I might get away with planting the bean seeds later on this afternoon though
