I spent a few hours with my plants this afternoon, potting on silly indoor plants. The zinnias and cosmos are now in their own pots. I’ve potted on the stupid thin sweet peas, two per pot. I need to try and prop them up somehow so they don’t get caught on anything. All the new moves have been fed with seaweed.

Having realised that I was using 2023 seed, I bought new sweetcorn seeds and sowed replacements to go with the five plants that have come up. That tray is inside to let them germinate.

All four cucumbers are now up. I’m guessing they’ll break when transplanted, so I’m hoping that the direct sown seeds will come up soon. Everything is super dry at the allotment and we need some more rain soon.

The tomatoes have been outside for a couple of days, with the cover up and down. With the warm weather we’re having, little is left inside and the grow house gets zipped up late afternoon and opened in the morning.
