Ah... that might explain a lot. Do the symptoms include itching (to sow more) and paranoia (that they might have been sowed too early and the white fly are out to get you?)  Not to mention obsessively sorting your seed packets in alphabetical order - or maybe that's just me ;D

I think I might be coming down with a serious case of tomato sowing fever soon too...  ::)

Ruud I think it is contagious via the post!! Thanks to your very generous posting of seeds, i too have the same disease, but unlike you, I obviously have a different strain cos I cannot remember all the varieties I have sown! ;D ;D

There are those that howl when the moon is full, me I smile and sow when the sun is full.

Is this another indication of the aforementioned madness? If so, long may it continue  :)

The unmentionable got me last year...................its just made the tomato madness worse................am growing about 10 varieties this year instead of 4 last year and am determined to get a crop this year in spite of having no greenhouse. The strategies I'e got planned........

Sounds like its a progressive disease then Ruud?

This year I have 37 varieties to go in ...

My 2 year old is very keen on my allotment - he wants his own, so I am digging him a bed - He has asked for potatoes, beetroot, carrots, cabbages and jelly plants.

Luckily, I have tracked down a variety of cherry tom called Jelly Bean - How lucky is that?

The size of my farm is half a soccerfield and that is more than enough work to keep it all going on.
