2021 What I sowed today

To mark the start of "Second Spring" I've sown Hunter CFBs, Sonesta and Traviata DFBs and about 100 old CFB &DFB beans - randomly scattered in a seed tray. If any germinate I'll be amazed - they were in jam jars at the back of the cupboard.

I filled 1/2 of one of my long raised beds with soil. Might use it for fruit trees.

Some wok broc, beetroot, pak choi, & salad leaves

Some lettuce seeds in the greenhouse, below the tomatoes which hopefully will keep them a bit cooler also some cabbage though not the recommended time for sowing, but nothing ventured nothing gained

I’d go two spare buckets so I’ve sown radishes in one and spicy mix lettuce in the other.

Sown some Turnips today..

I transplanted strawberry plants into a raised bed that held onions that I harvested today.

Rooster potatoes, mixed coloured carrots, Nantes carrots, iceberg lettuce, loose leaf lettuce, dwarf lavender, some peas, and some hazelnuts. All sowed in the tunnel except the peas which were added to a strip of modules outside where some hadn’t grown.

Its Roots Day and, having read that carrot seeds are only viable for a year (Real Seeds), I broadcast lots of old carrot seeds on a bare patch of ground. Had to cover them with some netting as the chooks were all set to dig them up as fast as I scattered the seeds.
