Resowed some Dwarf Blue Scotch kale
1 challenge pumpkin
1 cucumber
1 courgette
Why! Why did you have to go and mention you’ve sown your challenge pumpkin    Exclamation . You’re just being mean    Tongue .
So did you sow it on a windowsill or in the greenhouse?

Big Grin it was a preemptive strike at SWMBO before she starts nagging. I don't hold much hope of its survival, it's far too early. We're bound to have frosts. At least I've got plenty of seed to resow. Big Grin  The news last night said it got up to 17°C in  Cardiff  yesterday!  No wonder Veggie's sub tropical
The single seed was sown in some dodgy compost in a 3"/7.5cm pot and put in the heated propagator at about 12°C in the cold greenhouse. If it germinates, I'm in trouble because it'll be a triffid far sooner than it can be planted out.

Direct sown (roughly scattered/ emptied out of the bag ) Blue bells . Not holding out much hope. They didn’t look good.

Some are very old seeds - they're dancing in the Last Chance Saloon tonight!
Today, I've sown Beth Alpha cucumbers - i intended to sow 4 seeds but an extra 2 fell out of the packet so I bunged them in as well!
Also lots of old Oregon Sugar Pod & Delikett peas. Again, last chance for these!

Hestia dwarf runner beans . Six modules, 2 beans in each. I'll grow these near the house in pots as they're so pretty. It also lessens the risk of them crossing with any runner beans I may grow at the end of the garden.
