SUNSHINE



What a difference a day makes............... with just a few hours of sunshine today.
Basil, chillies & sweet peppers all germinated today, the sweet peppers
have taken nearly 30 days to show.

I am very happy about the lettuce which I spent a bit of time in to
planting the seeds, as they are so bloody small.
I used a pencil which I dipped in water to pick up individual
seeds.









We are still waiting to plant the main crop potatoes, finger crossed for a bit of fair weather.

Seed Tin



As you can see from our seed tin, we have a very busy time ahead.




It does have neat little partitions to keep everything organised,
well I do my best.



To store seeds for a short time, keep them dry
out of light and cool but with no risk of frost




This tin was a gift, it works well.
I place seeds I save myself in envelops marked with
what, when and where!
This is important, write it down.


So a big thanks to JA & NC for the tin.
There was a bottle of rum inside but this has disappeared?
