I sowed shallots our door in my raised beds, I sowed cabbage, broccoli, and turnip seeds in modules.
I sowed a lilac plant in the flower bed, 2 holly bushes in my hedge against the front fence, and my wife arrived home with 2 peony roses and 3 red hot pokers so they had to be sowed as well.

Sown some pre chitted parsnips then sprinkled poppies seeds along the side of the shed.

So basically I'm going to have a go growing at least one of each tomato sent to me as part of the seed swap/give away thread thingy. So I have sowed at least 2/3 seeds of each tomato on the list below! The last two were not part of the swap/give away they were kindly sent to me by Mamzie

Given my ongoing germination issues what could possibly go wrong?

Well everything went wrong

Whatever did germinate has now flopped over and perished and that wasn't many.

I have sown them all again today. I've decided to give up on my heated prop and use the unheated one sitting downstairs on the windowsill.

Everything was drying out to quickly, shouldn't be and issue downstairs as the small prop trays sit on capillary matting.

Ok, well I now have about 11 different tomatoe vararities that have germinated

I forgot. I put some mixed seeds in my sprouter this morning. The mix is mung beans, brown & green lentils, chick peas & aduki beans ( I need to research them ).

2 varieties of chard and 4 varieties of beetroot

Sown some more pre chitted parsnips just waiting for the last few in the trays to show.
