Just had the first bloom from my Spring sown plants, precisely 22 days
after those that were over-wintered under plastic. Don't think I'll
bother in future.
I remember Monty Don was doing a similar test but I don't remember
seeing the results

Hi Stuart,

I'm hoping you can see the results on the link below:-

It puts Autumn sowings way ahead of the others.

Cheers Spider. Very interesting, plus it gives me the date for the GW
broadcast, which I'll try and get hold of.
