Old Hispi cabbage and Rapa senza testa in gutters in GH2.
Wizard Field Beans and Giant Chives in modules - in the bedroom.
Sowed tomatoes today: my main producers gardeners delight and alicante. Also galina, orange banana, Omars Lebanese, Brandy wine, delicious. Roma VF and a rootstock submarine. Then a few celery seeds from the T&M sale earlier.
I had some empty modules, warmed from the sun on the windowsill, so I had to sow something. Decided to try some flowers. I'm not usually a flower person and I expect I'll regret sowing quite so early. Only a few seeds to each module as I haven't room for masses of tall plants. Those flower experts around, please offer helpful criticism. All sitting on a sunny windowsill ATM. I'm almost dreading if they all pop and ill have to find room for them to grow indoors (or set the props up early). Also sowed tomato Summerlast and set a few more chatted broad beans out in gh.

Have you had any luck with the eryngium? Blue ones seem easy - tried both of those whites this year and only got one seedling! The silver ghost has just gone back into the fridge

The Little Hobbit have germinated and growing on well, but no sign of life from the others yet. They're outside so it should be nice and cold for them these next few nights if they need that.

Carrots - Amsterdam Forcing and Radish - Hailstone in GH 2 and 1 respectively.
Scattered lots of old carrot and radish seeds in last year's courgette bed as I won't need that ground for a while.
