      Oh, is that how you start them off??

      In - some sprouting allium bulbs
      Out - baby Kale leaves.

        In that case...Sunday, First day of Spring:
        In- a number of seeds sown, bird feeders filled, time in the garden
        Out- a spectacularly early asparagus only slightly nibbled by slugs, kale, and general happiness caused by being in the warm spring sunshine for a couple of hours with no pressure to do anything or be anywhere.
        V.P.
        The thing I grow best are very large slugs!

          IN - a sprinkling of out-or-date allium seeds in a forgotten corner of the garden

          OUT - Lettuce and rocket. Am I predictable?

              Do you mean you grow tomatoes, potatoes, whatever, but don't bother to pick them?

                  No just the natural weedy stuff. It all goes on whether we join in or not.

                    Only OUTS today - the top of a dangerous slippery slope leading to the Hungry Gap - cabbage & leeks.
                    Did chuck some very ancient lovage seed in the bucket for the compost heap, so might get an inadvertent In!

                      In today...long radish.. no name, bought in Lidl today.

                      Out, parsley and garlic chives,

                      And when your back stops aching,
                      And your hands begin to harden.
                      You will find yourself a partner,
                      In the glory of the garden.

                          In...Spring onions White Lisbon.

                          Out...flat leaf parsley gone into the soup.

                          And when your back stops aching,
                          And your hands begin to harden.
