Well, I'll be away tomorrow till Friday so trying to cover plants/seedlings so they will survive without watering and with sunshine and frosts forecast.
Tomato plants grafted are in modules with the peppers and aubergines and will be under growlights for 9 hours a night on the living room floor. All 22 tomato plants are doing ok so far. Then there are 20 more that are in pots next to them.
Onion seedling/leeks/celery/asparagus/beetroot are on a bench outside above slug height hopefully.
Cauli/lettuce and sweetpeas are on a table covered with fleece to protect from wood pigeons - I spied 2 in a plum tree. probably eating the buds before they flower which I have never seen before. I think food may be in short supply for them round here. I've seen 3 jackdaws attacking the peanut feeder but I think with little success.
Earlier in the week the Met Office was forecasting overcast with some rain which I thought would be good but it changed today to sunny with frosts from tomorrow.
