  • Well, I went completely off-plan today!
    My Purple Ukraine and Cuban Black tomato seeds arrived so I sowed them, and some peas in modules.

    Then when I remembered to look in the book it had the dreaded X marks the spot - NO PLANTING

    Oh well fingers crossed for them

      • Yes Bins, today is one of my favourites "Garden works with root vegetables, compost works, transplanting, dunging, sowing the lawn, hairdressing fortunately". Pity I did none of them!!

              • Sown today swiss & rainbow chard, perpetual spinach and orange oriole leaf beet.
                Also white and blue borage thinking they are a herb (so leaf?) but could also be flower...but nonetheless have sown them today!

                    • Yes and then can we work out whether I missed the day you're talking about even if I knew what I was sposed to be sowing, since we get the day first?

                            Hey Feral - are you a Lunar-tic too? You must have an opposite moon phase calendar to us (I think)
                            Please don't try to explain it - I haven't got to grips with the Northern Hemisphere yet!

                            • More potatoes, I feel Irish and leeks (last of) into the nursery bed. Beetroot modules have gone in and tomorrow I must resow more. Oh and my Zazzy Bab Leeks and Walking Onions are in, but just realised I forgot to take my onions sown and waiting at home - damnation!
