outdoor cucs squashes & pumpkins,when to start

[womble]

Was going to sow cukes/squash/courgettes mid April. Plan to harden off and plant out late/end May.
Was going to start toms and such in the next week or so.

Somebody sane on here at last !

I was planning on doing exactly the same thing.

That's why we always ask members to put their approx location - a hundred miles further north or south can make a big difference, as can whether you live in a city or out in the sticks, whether you're growing in a sheltered garden or a windy allotment, etc, etc! Getting familiar with your micro-climate is a key gardening skill

You're telling me, it was supposed to get to a minimum of -2 on Wednesday night and it went down to -5 in my greenhouse!

My unheated greenhouse hasn't been colder than 4 yet

Mine's been down in minus figures several times the last week or so.
