  • Last night I started chitting some lark sweetcorn, and blauhilde and mamba climbing beans.
    Nestled somewhere in the Cambridgeshire Fens. Good soil, strong winds and 4 Giant Puffballs!

    • Late to this thread but adding mine for the record. Courgette Black Forest and Patisson Strie sown 28 April, both up within 5 days. Runner beans Scarlet Emperor direct sown 3 May, just starting to show. Everything else was done in March so well behind most of you.

              • Sowed some more runner beans and dwarf beans to replace the ones that got slugged and to use up some older but still closed packets. To my shock 2 of the seed packets (from the same supplier) were completely infested with weevils. 2 other packets stored in the same drawer were fine, so I suspect the extra protein was already included when I bought them.

                Also sowed basil and more parsley.

                • good job you found them before they moved themselves to other packets! Might it be worth contacting the supplier?
