So far I've got early and maincrop spuds, onions, shallots, garlic, broad beans and lettuce in the ground - although the lettuce has only just germinated and wasn't covered by fleece so may not be there after sitting under the snow yesterday. Have also just sown several drills of Kelvedon Wonder peas. In the greenhouse I've got pots of brussels sprouts, cauliflower, calabrese and sweet peas waiting to go out. And I've just sown several pots of tomatoes and chilli peppers.

Cheers,
Rob ;)

on target generally with spuds, broad beans, peas, g/h full with masses of seedlings but still waiting to get maincrop spuds and onions in - weather delays more than anything else and will resist the temptation to sow beans, corn and the cucurbits for awhile yet
