Well, I have waited and waited but my pumpkins are refusing to germinate
So, I'll have to keep an eye on this thread and see what I am missing
Has anyone got any pics of any of the plants yet? I'm looking forward to seeing your progress

caroline i always start my kins of by chitting the seeds in a moist paper towel in a ziplok bag after filing the seed edge and soaking for an hour or so i set my temp at about 85f they usually sprout in around 48 hours i then carefully transplant into my starting mix i have not started yet as the temps are still a little low soil wise i go for 10c or 50f give it a week or so and i shall be starting mine off

I went for a much more basic approach and popped the seed in a pot of compost in a heated propagator.
Ah well. You live and learn

Just looking through my giant veg seed. I gather pumpkins and marrows are still worth sowing; what about cabbages?

Mine are just coming up. Given that we've had frosts in two consecutive Junes, I wouldn't dare plant them out yet.
