New seeds
5th April 2009
I’ve done a bit of garden centre shopping, and a bit of indoor planting at this is what we have.
Seedlings are growing indoors but won’t need planting out for a few weeks:
Butternut squash
Courgette – multi-coloured (yellows and greens)
Tomatoes – gardeners delight cherry
Tomatoes – bush
Seeds left to plant indoors:
Cucumber – Marketmore organic
Seeds to plant straight out:
Red shallots
Concorde potatoes – main crop
Perpetual spinach – now (area nearest the apple tree)
Wild rocket – now (this can go in the salad section)
Salad bowl red and green lettuce – now (again in the salad section)
Broccoli – Autumn Calabrese – now (any good idea where to put this?)
French bean – The prince – May (between the spinach and the salad)
Beetroot – Detroit 2 organic – now (between the tomatoes and the gourds)
So there is quite a lot ready to plant out. I know you said that you’d dug a lot so I went down to the allotment to see if the areas for these plants were dug, and what needed doing to them. However it looks like quite a lot of these areas already have things planted in them. I’m not entirely sure, maybe they are weeds, but I don’t want to dig up something you have planted. Obviously I do need area to plant the things I’m growing though! So I’ll give you a call to sort this out as it’s a bit confusing at the moment. For example, where the spinach was going to go there seems to be a blackberry bush!
So I didn’t end up planting anything but just put growmore down instead.
