Allotments 4 All

Mine are 1ft tall and have flower buds. The plants have been outside, day and night,  for 2 weeks now and don't appear to suffer. So I decided to plant them out on the plot, unprotected. The tunnel cloche, which I had planned to use for my aubergines, will now be used for the peppers, which are still tiny.

When did you plant them? Mine are still tiny, but I probably planted them too late; I'm all over the place this year.

I can only say that the thin ones seem to do well. Haven't tried others.

I sowed the see mid Feb and raised the plants on a sunny window sill. The variety is Diamond from The Real Seed Catalogue.

I sowed my seeds only about a month ago - they are getting very leggy and most have sprouted 3-4 leaves, but I can't say they look strong enough to be planted outside yet. I might harden them off over the next week and then plant them under a cloche - does this sound like a plan???

This is my first year growing proper veggies...

Thanks Tim, I will try slim varieties next year.

Dandelion, I can't believe your plants are that big! I'm green with envy!!!
Diamond sounds like a very good variety. Hope The Real Seed Catalogue will sell them next year.

Some of my Heritage Mix aubergine plants wilted suddenly. The biggerst one is ok, but all the other plants look like dying. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.  :(
