So I have bought, King Edward and Desire as main crop potatoes and a new one for me Maris Peer as a second early. I will again plant into containers and bags as this worked really well last year and leaves me space for other crops in the garden.
I have bought red and brown onion sets that I will get in hopefully this week as we are on half term, so no excuses.
I also had some seeds that I wanted to get, as looking at the dates of some of my older seeds, they may not have performed that well this year.
So in the greenhouse today I have sown x24 Alicante tomato plants, they are, it informs me, reliable with an old fashioned flavour. Sweet Friggitello peppers and California Wonder peppers, that are last years seed, so here's hoping they will perform again this year. x6 Cucumber seeds, Telegraph Improved, coriander, spinach, lettuce and some cowslips that I want to grow for the garden bank. These are now all on the windowsill ready for action.
I have planted, not as many as last year, but enough extra to sell a few and hopefully cover my costs.
