I am amazed how quickly stuff has come along this week... The last time i went to the lottie was Tuesday, i sowed a row of salad bowl lettuce and some radishes and there both up this morning! All my spuds are now up, only a couple were on tuesday, Parsnips have just appeared, b.beans have grown about a 1ft, strawberrys are now flowering - everthing is racing along.. ;D

RIGHT ON

This week I did a met check and realised that the chance of frost was (famous last words) non existent.

The lot is now planted out.

PS there are some spares in the greenhouse. Just in case. ( I always plant too much. But there is always some one on the allotment who is sooooooooo far behind that they will use them.

Lets hope you are right about the frost PH. I did a metcheck a month or so ago for the last frost forecast, it said mid May.

I am willing that to be wrong!!
