Potted on broccoli and covered parsnip bed with netting that should stop the birds digging.

Shuffled more pots around in GH1. Planted Beth Alpha cucumbers in one and a tomato in another. Tied the previously planted tomatoes to their supports.
Pulled up the rocket and salad leaves that were in the pots and scattered them in the garden, in the hope that they'll self seed there.
Potted the first of the ?100 old courgette seeds to germinate. Looks like a few more are thinking about it!
Chopped and dropped more weeds.
Very hot today.

A very nice day, so when I got home early from work, I've spent some time carrying branches from a broken off branch from the tree at the back of the house (or two branches, actually). We don't have high hopes for the remaining large trunk of the tree as it's definitely rotten at the base. Still, we're hoping it will last another year or two.
Then I had to tackle the lawn. We've not cut it yet this year, and I was worrying over all the moss and the length of it. I figured I'd tackle the half of the front lawn where our outdoor furniture is at the moment. Just that, and I'm not finished, has taken over an hour. But my goodness, I got loads of cuttings - it's mainly moss, for my veg beds.

Planted out module sown MT down one side of the newly erected sticks. Sowed CFB along the other side. They were old seed and I've sown slightly early as we're likely to have frosts still, but we'll see how it goes. I've sown CFB & DFB in modules in the gh just in case the outside ones fail. Found a pot of BBean tips that I had bunged in some compost when the mice chopped the tops off. They'd all but one rooted so squeezed them in along the rows of BB in the patch. Watered new plantings and sowings as it's really warm. Shaded gh from the afternoon sun.
