SEEDS SORTED AT LAST

Today I have sat and finalised a list of all my seeds, along with when they are sown, transplanted and harvested.... heck did it take some doing....

I'm going to list them on here -then, hopefully I can add how good the yield and taste was (so In know what to try next year)

All the ones in brown are new varieties I'm trying so it will be a bit of a lucky dip this year as I'm still growing everything in tubs -so somethings might not take kindly to it!! But I will still try -and find out.....

I'm really looking forward to trying the baby cauli, turnips etc....

Hi there

I'm not sure it will all fit yet lol .....
It is mainly on the patio but there is a strange soakaway/path that runs diagonaly across the lawn -so the tubs and arches for beans and peas will run a long that.
I plan on doubling up things where I can -so The ridge cucmbers will be trained to climb up an arch and the space at the bottom will be used for salad leaves etc
The beans and peas will go up the arches -but the space along the sides will have dwarf beans in ...
Failing that..hubby and I will be shuffling through a very small gap on the patio if we want to get out ;-)
