Sowed a second batch of cfb's Hunter, Lidl's, Coco blanc a rames and Merchant of Venice. Put some old bean seed to chit on kitchen towel.
I plan to sow some dwarf wallflowers tomorrow, for next spring - it was going to be today, but it never happened.
Finally received the deep module trays I'd ordered to replace my root trainers so went mad.....

Runners - 14 each of Gigantes / Moonlight - The intention is to save these for dried beans - Never tried this before

DFB's - 11 each Sonesta / Borlotto / Ferrari / Polka - These are all old seeds so wanted to use most of them.

CFB's - 11 each of Blue Lake / Coco Blanc / Violet Podded - Again old seeds.

I've done a "veggie" with the remaining DFB/CFB's and thrown them all in respective DFB/CFB bagsSmile
Sowed some more runners, Scarlet Emperor

Sweetcorn Incredible

Potted on Walking Stick Cabbage, Collard Greens, Kalettes, Chard, Spinach
2015 wallflower seed. The last of the chitted Picasso sweetcorn.
Sown some more courgette & some more jalapeños
Sowed some DFB as my others died from recent frosts

What collard greens are you growing?

They're "Teddie F1", from Chiltern Seeds. I think I just threw them in my cart when I was buying something else - I hate to buy a £1.95 packet of seeds and then pay £2.35 postage!
The rain and wind drove me indoors today so I filled some modules and did some sowing in the kitchen:-
Luffa
Dieta Edible Lupins
Beth Alpha Cucumber
Lab Lab bean
Crown Peas - Salmon & White
Tromboncino
Carosello
Cucuzzi
Serpente di Sicilia
6 types of lettuce:- Red Grenoble, Little Gem, Red Iceberg, Freckles, Australian Yellowleaf, Chartwell.

Most of these are past their sow by date so I'm not expecting 100% germination - 1% would be a bonus. Smile
A bit of resowing this evening when the sun came out.
Jalapeños
Window sill chives
Rudbeckia goldsturm
Gaillardia
14 mixed edible squash seeds purchased from ebay.. I have no idea where I will grow them on if they all germinate but from what I've read I somehow don't think this will happen. We shall see. Smile
