My planting out dates
« on: June 29, 2006, 22:00:41 »
I have produced a slide show initially for my own graphic records.

I thought some of you might like to see details of my planting out times so that you can compare notes with your own.

In some cases in this record you can see the differnce of what 10 days can make to progress.

This year due to the lousy weather we had in May, many of my dates are later than normal, but all in all considering these circumstances,I am quite happy with progress

I hope you like it;
