Last frost here is apparently the last week in April.
QuoteLast frost here is apparently the last week in April.I would suggest this is an average. Which means you could still get one up to beginning of June. You will need to keep up with the weather forecast and anything lower than 4 may need some fleecing. We even had one in August last year. I lost some nasturtiums. My best ones are covered in plastic for some weeks.There is a program called IFTTT which you can use to set up an email or phone warning.
"And now I've accumulated lots of different varieties of seed."Silverleaf: do you save your own seed? If so, can you tell me the best way to get the stickiness off and dry them? I grew Tigerella very successfully outdoors last year. They were in different locations but the ones in fulI sun in growbags did best. I don't much like raw tomatoes but these were nice. I did keep a few for seeds but didn't get around to it.
Then the internet told me that you can skip all that and just scoop out the seeds and gel and spread it out onto kitchen paper. When you sow the seeds you can just tear up bits of the paper with the seeds still stuck on and plant that! Disclaimer: I've saved seeds this way but haven't tried to germinate them yet. I hear others have success like that though.
just started preparing my outdoor tomato bed this week digging in rotted horse manure and a top dressing of racing pigeon poo by the time i get to plant it out the rain has driven in the pigeon poo and the toms grow like mad
