I sowed some in pots 3 weeks ago, I daren't do it before as it's been so

bush and one goldina and they have polythene bags on now. Is it too
late?
Spring gets later and later.


I would say it's OK. I have been late with them in previous years and no
problem. The ones in my garden are doing very little at the moment
either - so
I hope I am correct when I say it is not too late.

I've replanted after a 9th June frost in the past and had a crop so I
doubt it's too late. very little seems to be growing well this year so far
anyway. Probably due to the total lack of rain here coupled with the cool
nights. Watering with a watering can just seems to keep them alive.
I planted our Courgettes out just after Chelsea and they have hardly
grown. Cropped our Garlic last week, the dry weather and rust took it's
toll.

The new sowing of courgettes was successful. Just peeping through after 8
days.
Got my garlic up a couple of weeks ago. Has cloved up but not very big
bulbs. No rust, so I'm happy with it.
