      Yes its the big sowing month for me also, I've chitted the sweetcorn earlier this year, not up yet.
      Tomatoes for outside growing, some zinnias, castor oil plants, a lot of my plants are grown each year from divisions these days, so not as much seed sowing as I used to.

        I've just sown 2 x 24 cell trays of lavender Munstead Dwarf after seeing the prices in a GC yesterday - 4€99 for a 12cm pot! I need loads of them to plant round my hen house and the pen.

        I sowed curry leaf tree, Sichuan pepper and Sri Lankan gooseberry and few tomatoes and chillies and 25 cosmos in the propagator last week and I need them all to pop before I can sow anything else that needs heat or at least not to get cold at night.

        The next things I sow will be curcubits and some more annual and perennial flowers but not today as I'm going to sew a frock.

          Big month here too. Just got the runner beans and courgettes started, and a tray of basil that'll probably take forever as usual. Trying a few different squash varieties this year so we'll see how that goes.
