More from Today...

2 days ago I put a load of squash seeds in the airing cupboard on damp kitchen roll to pre- germinate as I have had quite a few not comw up in the greenhouse this year and many of those which have are rather moribund-looking. These have germinated already and so I potted them up in the greenhouse today to see how they get on. Hope it isn't too much of a shock to their systems. I used B & Q peat -free compost which is rather lumpy but seems less prone to totslly dry out than the peat-based ones. It is bit like a cross between a compost and a mulch!

I also sowed these directly into the ground next to the Purple Sprouting I planted out in the new bed earlier just to see how it goes.

Not only that I weeded  the onion bed just before I went home..
