Hi chriscross1966,

Looking back through this thread I see that you've been ill. If my last post sounded impatient I apologise, it's been busy lately. Won't sow my squashes for ages yet, so no hurry.

Get well soon,
martinburo.

Sorry.... squash seeds went in post 10 minutes ago.....  hopefully you'll get in next couple of days.... it's a couple of weeks before they can get sown though I'd have thought.... otherwise the things are too huge before they go out....

Not too worry Chris.  Although I have been eagerly checking the post everyday I was saying to my wife that if Chris is anything like me he will still be trying to post the envelopes.

I recently sent goodlife some seeds and didnt get round to posting untill a few days after I aimed too.  Just kept driving around with the stamped envelope on my car seat.

Your right chris, I sowed on the 7th April and had to pot on and on and on.  Not that it will stop me this year  ;D

Great, many thanks. Now I'll have to be patient for the weather to warm up some more.

And that's everyone in the swap has got their seeds.... hurrah!.....got to get the spuds in next week so I can work out how many squashes to sow :-).... they're sharing space on my #2 plot this year though I guess I can put some more spuds in pots on the patio.....

Couple of squashes in big tubs?

I've started sowing - a couple of each. Very exciting to have so many types to try this year. And I especially like swapped or given seeds, more special than bought.  :)
