getting on


This is my hot bed, with lettuce (ready in a couple of weeks) beetroot and carrots. I have now taken the glass roof off, as there is no frost forecast for the next few days - indeed, it will be very warm and dry, which makes a change!
Elsewhere on the plot, I have planted various seeds, and of course my seed potatoes, which have just started to show above the surface, but so far the parsnip seed does not appear to have done anything.

At home, in the greenhouse, I have planted runner beans and French beans. These have just started to sprout, and should be ready to plant out in June. Now I must plant courgettes, sweetcorn and butternut squash.
