Few onion sets that I put in some time ago are now starting to grow well.

This picture shows the stump carrot bed last weekend, it is now finished and my carrots were sown a few days ago..They wont germinate I pretty much know this for a fact and I will be swearing on here in a few weeks time about it.

I think i have 60 carrots in this bed with a path near the middle so I can have some access to water and check things over. Also because they are in a shady position (shed and hedge) I need to space them out in the hope of giving them some more light.

Most of my sweet peas are now planted out and should make a good display if I have time to look after them.

My sowing of tomatoes, much later than last year as I'm hoping I can at least pick some from the bottom this year for show which is normally where the best tomatoes come from.

The show shallots have been planted out now for a week and have taken well. Normally they are only in the ground for a month before they require thinning.
