[1066]

Well it does for me  Yesterday I sowed 1 or 2 seeds of the folowing -

Blue Kuri, Blue Ballet, Boston, Festival , Crown Prince , Futsu Black, Galeuse D'Eysines, Lunga Di Napoli, Little Gem Rolet , Musquee De Provence, Marina Di Chioggia, Potimarron, Pink Banana, Queensland Blue, Rouge Vif D'Etampes, Red Kuri , Snowman , Sucrine De Berry, Sweet Dumpling

Some great new ones to try (thanks to great swaps) and a couple of my new favourites  I just have to figure out where they will all go ........

Some nice ones there! Red kuri and crown prince are my favourite. We are also growing potimarron this year on recommendation from half our allotment site.

And Manics it sounds as if you are ahead of the game! I love seeing those 1st leaves

It's about 8 weeks till pumpkins and other tender stuff can go outside here so I won't be sowing for another few weeks yet.
