no not too late

You can also increase your toms by taking off the sideshoots of your gardener's delight and using them as cuttings

Second wave of tomato, aubergine, melon and chilli sowing scheduled for last w.e. but will actually happen tonight - I hope . Nearly a month later than last year for the toms and chillis,  so hope for a long sunny summer  :)

I only want 2 more tomato plants as some of mine died. I am gonna cheat and buy 2 tomato plants from my lottie shop at 50p each.  They are 8-10" high so are well established and will save me the trouble of starting over and hoping the seeds will germinate. ;)

It`s far too late to sow MM-they should be sown outside on Dec 15th for optimum return- ;)all other varieties should be OK
