Patience, young Jedi
The message
from "Crundy" contains these words:
OK, so I should point out that I'm the impatient type. I have my spuds
chitting and have started my garlic off inside in pots to give them a head
start with the warmth. I was wondering if I need to start anything else off
now? I only have one of those little zip up greenhouses (just to get things
started) and am growing everything in pots / growbags on my patio. I have a
magic airing cupboard which causes any seeds left to germinate in there to
grow :-)
This year I'm growing:
Potatoes
Good Friday
Onions (sets)
When you do plant them, protect them from blackbirds, which will pull them up.
Butternut Squash
Plenty of time yet
Garlic
Probably too late, but if not, get them in yesterday
Tomatoes
Start under glass February is what I aim to do.
Aubergines
No idea (horrible pithy, yuchy, characterless things!), but I'd treat as
per tomatoes - and sweet peppers.
Peas
Read the destructions on the packet(s) - and beware of slugs.
"Firetounge" beans
Climbing Corgette
Plenty of time yet
Bolthardy Beetroot
Pick-and-come-again lettuce leaves
Radishes (dotted inbetween other things)
Whenever you like, and all through the year.

Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional.
