What I intend to do today or tomorrow number2

[Jungle Jane]

Sowed around 75 tomato seeds yesterday. I need to pot on geraniums,marigolds,peppers & two balconi red tomato seedlings & sow sweet peas,broad beans & a lot of French marigolds. I found the Robin Hood broad beans at the garden centre last Friday so thought I’d try them,supposed to be good in containers although I’ll probably need the containers for 75 tomato plants

Remove mushrooms from compost in pots sown with peppers and tomatoes*

*this compost was from a half used bag stored over winter in the garage, something I have done numerous times before. The mushrooms are pushing the compost up and out of the pots (some are upto an inch across) and I have no idea if the seeds will survive.
