I have sown Lettuce, cabbage, brussels, kale, cauliflower and broccoli seeds in trays in the growhouse. Just to see how they go

Here in the North-East I've just planted my first row of broad beans this morning. Everything else can wait for a few weeks!

Wow this thread is making me feel lazy!
I have potted on my chilis, sowed my Toms and sown peas in root trainer. Just done some beetroot (I went early last year and did well) and Marconi peppers. Onions and leeks later this week but I wont really get going till 2-3 rd week of March.

Spent a lovely hour or so yesterday in the greenhouse, half-deafened by the hailstone crashing into the glass some of the time, my head cooking from the sun for the rest.. 8)
Pricked out some chillis, toms, caulis, and cabbage. Sowed some leeks and a couple of things I've forgotten already..... But did remember to write down! That's a first. ;D

My tatties are looking a bit grim though. They are all shrivelling up. They might have to go in soon.... :-\

Just planted the first 2 of my chitted parsnips under a fleece tunel, sowed beetroot as ray's mum loves baby beet and we're running out. ;D

In the sultry sunny south I'm miles behind (as is often the case ::))

Broadbeans up, leeks just coming through a month later than usual.

More seeds ordered.... and plans to start off beetroot in cells, tomatoes in the propagator and then an hour thumbing through the seed packets.

Oh... just remembered:

Shallots are in cells rooting & shooting in a cold greenhouse (this has worked so well for the last three years)
Potatoes chitting in the potting shed
Garlic... sat sitting in modules also in the greenhouse... heaven knows why as normaly I'd plonk them straight in the ground... lack of time to get to the plot and my son bought the garlic for me to grow for him (how kind :D)

Patience but very very soon the marigolds must go in then a panic as I'm sure something should have happened in February. ???

Number Six · « **Reply #32 on:** March 07, 2012, 08:03:41 »

Garlic, onions, broad beans, beetroot and spring onions are in - leeks and parsnips in a week or so.

manicscousers · « **Reply #33 on:** March 07, 2012, 09:04:04 »

Transplanted the 6 burpless cucs , Ray filled a gutter of meteor peas, I'm starting san marzano and roma toms today, plus I have some ginger in pots in the propagator ;D

antipodes · « **Reply #34 on:** March 07, 2012, 09:37:19 »

And if it stops raining I will go plant more early spuds and start off the peas and salads this weekend!

Another timely reminder. I always regret not starting telegraph cucs earlier - thanks both.

manicscousers · « **Reply #38 on:** March 07, 2012, 17:48:21 »

I've just started some walking stick cabbage, just for a laugh ;D

Aden Roller · « **Reply #39 on:** March 08, 2012, 01:35:02 »

I sowed Beetroot in modules today so they'll be up and ready to go out on the plot as soon as the soil warms up.
