Blimey, you lot are a bit keen. The only thing I have planted is some chilli seeds in the propagator (and only because they may take 2 weeks to germinate). I won't really think about planting until mid march (I am in Yorkshire) as in my experience things will catch up if planted a bit late but tend to suffer if planted too early.

Thoughts?

you've got no idea how much better that makes me feel, Wasp_Box!
this is my first year, I don't have a greenhouse/conservatory/heated propagator, I've only got one bed dug on my plot at the moment, I haven't planted anything inside or out yet, and am beginning to get the fear :o

potatoes will probably be the first thing to go in, I was thinking mid March (based on various threads and discussions on this site), followed by a mad panic of outdoor planting that I haven't even thought about yet! it all depends on how many beds I have ready... so more a case of "in at last"!
