Here you go Glosterwomble.........pretty it aint, and I should have pre-drilled holes for the screws to avoid the wood splitting...........but once it is covered in seed trays, no-one will notice anyhow. (I hope!) And it does the job! ;D
Now glad we keep all the odds n sods of wood in the garage!

PS: bet OH laughs at it when he gets home and tell me my angles are not straight! ;D

I confess I've never pinched out chilli plants, I did try this on some of my aubergines last year but they cropped so late I didn't notice any difference.... :-\

I just wait until I think the chilli looks strong enough to handle the trauma - I think that usually translates into 5 or 6 leaves.

I sowed my Onions and sweet peas in January and since then nothing!

I just can't get enthused this year must be the weather!

As it happens I do most of my sowing towards the end of March so there is still plenty of time for me to get 'the urge!

I agree Tee Gee, March is the big month here as well... ;D

Last 2 weeks of March will be my next session .... just needed something to play with in the meantime. :D

Big juggling starts in April when the windowsills all fill up! ;D ;D

My soil is too wet at the moment to plant out, so I thought I'd give the four year old something to do and put some shallots in pots and see how they do against the others when they are all planted out. ;D ;D ;D

Nothing. I wouldn't rest my bare bum on the soil yet!

hippydave · « **Reply #32 on:** February 21, 2009, 19:16:02 »

sown a row of lettuce and a row of red spinach under clotches in the boarder of the greenhouse, figure that they will be out by the time the toms are ready to go in,

Today I sowed 4x12 cell trays of marigold, 2x6" pots of Radish french breakfast, 4x5" pots of Musselburgh leeks, 2 dozen Little Gem. All of which are in my greenhouse.

Yesterday I transplanted 30 x tomato seedlings, 16 x Primo cabbage seedlings, 10 Arcadia calabrese and 10 x Parthenon calabrese. All of which are in my kitchen. I just need to stop the tomatoes reaching towards the light.
