Sorry I don't agree with reading the seed packets, you must see what the
weather is like. The ground here, even in Plymouth is too cold for many
small seeds I think. Best to wait until the annual weeds start to germinate.
I have put sprouts and leeks in pots but not out in the ground. If you put
things in too early you often need to do it again. You pays your money and
takes your choice
