If you love bit of slow paced seed sowing, join me for an afternoon in the poly tunnel to sow some more edible crops. I talk about my veggie plans and how some 2m arches will be used.

Guess I’d better get at it, haven’t started one veg yet 🙄
I cannot believe you're outside in a t-shirt already. We have the worst cold rainy weather here in Germany. 😢 I suppose I have to move to England. 😊 Good luck with all your plans this year!
By the way, what is the difference between Squash and Pumpkin? The size? I think we only have one word for both.
Squash does ramble a bit doesn't it. I'll be growing Red Kuri and Celebration (acorn) squashes. I like Butternut but with limited space I think I'll just buy a couple from the farmers market and call it good.
My peas and onions are already up and doing well. We have a longer cooler spring then usual so that might help the peas last longer, hopefully. I've not had much luck with beetroot before. Maybe I'll try again before the seed gets too old. Now where are they?? 😄
I think you need a bigger watering can 😆
I posted this on the GW forum. This year I experimented starting peas on wet kitchen roll, at the same time I put some in pots with compost, the kitchen roll ones grew really fast, and I then put them into individual pots of compost, the ones sown in compost were really slow, the kitchen roll ones are now out in the garden 15cm tall, the pot grown ones are 6cm tall, and look weaker, something to think about.
What are your thoughts on F1 seeds? Some people won't use them.
Amazing. Oh I wish I was sowing and growing this year but the way life has panned out there is sod all growing as I have no where to do it. Absolutely frustrating but I am on the wait list for an allotment and I am still looking for a few acres of land to buy. The list seems never ending and the land is not happening either. Have seen so many parcels of land available but none have been what I am looking for as its quite a specific list of requirements.
I did sow: beets, courgette, butternut squash and some more. Peas too, but directly in the garden; didn't know I was supposed to wait until last frost date. They didn't know either, they germinated nicely and are growing!
I’ve started three kinds of red beets and a golden beet called Touchstone Gold. Love love love beets!
I put a few early beetroots out the other day.. but more importantly.. great video again and just to add i'm soooooo excited to grow as many tomatoes as I can this year in the garden 🙂
The threat of widespread frost early next week has derailed my plans a bit
Tried beetroot 3 times without success
Hello I am growing butternut squash from a shop bought butternut that I saved seeds from. And also a crown prince pumpkin. Thanks Cat.
Which compost are you using?
I'm with you on the freshly picked pea. There is nothing quite like the taste of a pea picked fresh from the pod. Yum yum.
I grew red kuri over those arches last year & they were amazing…once to a certain size I created a little hammock for them 😊
Hi Katrina, is it easy to grow mini cucumbers from seeds in containers, peas that grow 10ft tall is amazing 😊
ganda ng garden nyo kaibigan ang laking taniman..daming tanim..isang masugid na tagasubaybay ng iyong channel watching from phillippines
I don't know if you follow Emma's allotment diaries but she did or does pumpkin arch every year.. Mine didn't work out but hey ho always this year .
