I seem to remember that YOU asked us all to send our stuff in postal boxes instead of squishy padded envelopes!!!!
Reap what you sow Veggie!

Joking aside, I guess we must all owe you for extra stamps if we’re getting thirty ish packets.
Let me know!

Sowed some flowers (marigolds and sunflowers)
Potted on some sweet and hot peppers

And that's all I had energy for, I had a dose of food poisoning last night and I'm absolutely bushed today.

Planted out a few lettuce, cabbage, kohlrabi, beetroot, sunflowers.
Pricked out leek seedlings.
Sowed some seeds.
Mowed the lawn.

Pricked out yet more seedlings and put chitted bean seeds into modules. Set up second staging in gh2, it sounds grand but in reality it's a folding pasting table which gets folded away when the toms are ready to go in the border

Work this morning. Spent a lot of the afternoon in the ditch, planting aubrieta all along the bank. Also did some sewing. Several of the zips on the blow away tunnel were broken so I sewed them closed. Ferried chillies out to the tunnel and back in again.

Filled a wheelbarrow with Hotbin compost and put mounds of it where I'll be planting CFBs.
Took down fencing and reconfigured it around the veg plot and old pond. I now have an L shaped plot. Better start planting summat soon. Dug up some buttercups and other weeds that weren't accessible when the fence was in place.

The whole crew went to the allotment. Oldest daughter helped sow parsnips then played in her tent. Baby took a nap. Husband weeded and dug brambles. I planted other sweet peas, weeded, added bits to the compost bin, and sheepishly answered questions about how little time I put into the plot (I'm sure the secretary thinks this is supposed to be encouraging a new plotholder about little and often as a strategy, but it just invites them to look at my mess!).

I've tidied up a bit in the back garden - putting things for the tip in one place, things to burn in another etc.

Sowed tomato seeds and planted up begonia tubers I bought last week.

Emptied out plant pots from last year, and weeded a bit along the fence as you enter the back garden. I want to turn a spot there into a little herb garden and it gets sun for most of the day.

I have to tackle the front garden tomorrow. It's getting overgrown with weeds.
