I've just sown 2 ricinus seeds - not sure I've got room for any more than 2 plants if they both get going.

The first load of Cleome seeds I sowed did'nt come to anything. This next load are being stratified and are now in the fridge. I hope I remember to bring them out in a couple of weeks. |

Yesterday, Jenny and I sowed the Beetroot Choggia and Bolthardy seeds. I'd soaked them between 2 pieces of kitchen roll and put it into a sealed plastic food bag to germinate. I was delighted to see all the little roots appearing. MY hands were'nt that steady to use the tweesers to place them into the cells so that's why Jenny helped me. ;D I was overjoyed last year with my 1st successful harvest after trying and failing the year before. |

I've just sowed 39 dahalia seeds, I asked Sharon to lend me the electric blanket I bought her for Christmas to stand them on, to keep them nice and warm, but she said no for some reason.  Anyway she'll have dahalias in spades now (fingers crossed ). |

I was potting on yesterday and have come to the realisation that I am going to be in serious difficulties trying to get everything I'm already growing into the ground this year. Still I went ahead and sowed some more seeds. ;D

I've started using another window sill - had to clear the boys trophies off it first  I will put them back ;D I've just discovered that I mis-labelled my Comfrey as Borage - now that could have been a disaster |

;DAt least you've realised what you did.
I've sown Mina Lobata, I think they can take a while to germinate. Ipomea Scarlet O' Hara (Many thanks to Dutchy for both sets of seeds) and my own Spanish Morning Glory. Oh and I sowed some Ganzia.
