Will be trying to get the cover on the polytunnel today and hopefully then will sow some peas and lots more stuff

I have peas started inside, 6 have come on far enough to plant out, I might do that today.

4 came on the withered and died (as did all my beans and some of the onions) and about a half a dozen never came on at all.

I'll start more inside as soon as I plant the 6 good ones out.

I planted some Mangetout into modules last week. They are in my cold frame. I'll be in no hurry to plant them out.

My peas are just pushing up in our little plastic greenhouse. I'm gonna put them in large long pots alongside the shed and have them climb a roof-high net. Gotta make the best of our small garden. Smile

Any day now . . . May 1st, anyone? Soil temp still only 9 degrees last week; talk about a Spring that never Sprung!

But the polytunnel's up and done, anyway . . .

John
