Tuesday - Sowed Blue Solaise leeks in a pot in GH and Babington leek bulbils in a tray.
The Mizuna seeds were Sow by 2017!!! maybe too late for these little fellas. Still, every seed deserves a chance so some went in a tetrapak and the remainder in a GH bed behind the lettuce.
Modules filled with compost ready for tomato sowing tomorrow - modules in the kitchen warming up in readiness. Propagator set up in bedroom. Smile

Hello again. this year has flown by and, as you predicted, I failed to keep this up for long. Undaunted, I shall try again with a tweak Big Grin
I'm going to find one of the many out of date diaries I acquired and write in it what I should be doing each week - a schedule of work to do rather than a record of what I've done (or not done).
I really must try harder. Wink

Right, I've started. Big Grin
Written up the next 4 weeks schedule of work. Tomorrow I sow a bucket of carrots and some radish (summer and winter). Also, I have to harvest a root to eat (carrot, potato).
There's an extra task too! Since I no longer have 30 beds, I've "divided" the garden into 4 long strips, running west to east.
Week 1 = the north strip along the fence
Week 2 = the adjacent strip to the south
Week 3 = the next strip to the south of 2
Week 4 = the south strip alongside the other fence.
Each week I'll concentrate the weeding efforts on one strip instead of hopping about from one to the other.
The weekends are for catching up on tasks I may have missed and for working on the garden nearest the house which isn't part of the Strip system.
I trust that clear! If there are any questions, ask someone else. Big Grin

I hope no one is looking over the fence when you do your long strips!
I am only the Boss because Veggie lets me be!

Potted up Snail begonia, Tarragon and Christmas cactus cuttings.

North strip clearance today - pruning fruit bushes and digging up brambles and nettles, cutting down apple mint and lemon balm. I've rediscovered a path!!
