I have moved my propogator to a window sill in the bathroom where there is no radiator near it. I will report them on Friday as I have work for the rest of the week.
Coffee keeps me busy until it’s acceptable to drink whiskey.

I have transplanted 10 tomato seedlings into small pots and now have these on the window sill in the bathroom there are still some in the propagator I will wait and see how the transplants get on first before I try some more.

My early toms have been in the GH for a couple of weeks - covered at night with a couple of layers of polythene.
Guess who forgot to cover them last night when the temp in the GH went down to 5.4. Wink
They're not dead yet. Smile

I've got baby tomatoes about medium sized marbles.  I think it should go in a bigger pot, I'll get round to it somewhen.

Even your 'low' temps aren't horrendous!  My tomatoes have to cope with that normally in their propagator. You're upsetting me again. Smile

Excuse me, JJB, but you're upsetting me with your baby tomatoes. Mine are nowhere near flowering, let alone fruiting!!

Never mind, this year' we'll let you win. Smile

Thank you. But the real thanks go to the forum i.e. Veggie who spurred me to sow a lot earlier than I normally would. I bet TMTT has been picking tomatoes all winter. Smile
