I'm literally running out the door to the Farmers Market but wanted to share some pictures of my current seedlings with you :) I've been sowing seeds since January and most of my seedlings are still indoors, though I have moved some out into the coldframe now - and wishing I had a second one to fill as well. The production line this time of year is fairly hectic and my April batch of seeds will take up even more room than I have now. I am starting to sell seedlings at my market stall from today so hopefully I can make a bit of room that way. If you're on the look-out for tomatoes at the moment, I'm selling them for 50p a pot.
I'm dashing out the door now but hope you have a fantastic day!
Fantastic! Enjoy the farmers market! Thanks for the photos.
ReplyDeleteYour welcome Judi - the Farmers Market was really nice yesterday...very sunny and plenty of people stopping by :)
DeleteWow you are wayyyyyy further ahead than me! Hope it goes well at the farmers market.
ReplyDeleteIt's a bit colder here, being so far north, so I start nearly everything I grow indoors and then move them out at the end of April through to June. Our house becomes a real greenhouse this time of year!
DeleteIt seems only yesterday that you were planting tomato seed! They are ready to plant if it gets warm enough. Mine still have only 2 leaves but are coming along.
ReplyDeleteTime flies doesn't it? I plan on potting up the rest of my tomato seedlings this weekend and trying to sell them by the end of the month. There are a couple of events I've got stalls at in addition to the farmers market so fingers crossed. My own will go into their final large pots next week to grow on in the conservatory. I can't wait for home-grown tomatoes...yum yum!
DeleteWow...you have an impressive amount of seedlings and they all look very healthy. I don't have all of my vegetables sown yet but I'm not worried...there's still time. Hope you get plenty of sales at the farmers market!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tanya...though most of them will be either sold or given to friends :) I'm sowing even more, if you can believe it, over the next month: pumpkins, sweet corn, french beans and all the less hardier plants. It's going to be mad.
DeleteGreat looking seedlings - hope they sold well? You are way ahead of me too and your Basil photo has reminded me that one of my sowings was hit by a long cold finger of Jack Frost and I need to get some more in :)
ReplyDeleteOne of the ladies at the Farmers Market was saying how her husband jumped the gun and planted some lettuce out on Wed night - the night they had a grass frost overnight. I don't have much out myself but hopefully can start plugging them in soon. It's too bad you don't live in the area Mo otherwise I'd give you some more Basil in a couple of weeks!
DeleteSuch healthy looking seedlings. You've got the knack. Hope you had a great day at the farmers market.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah! But tt's not really a knack.. All seeds want to grow, they just need the right conditions :)
DeleteThey're all looking nice and healthy. Hope you did well at the farmers market.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jo...and let's hope they stay that way :)
DeleteA good array of fine seedlings - now all we want is some more warm weather so we can all get planting.
ReplyDeleteYes, please!
DeleteYou know how the Native Americans sometimes do a rain dance? I think we should all do some 'sun dances' :)
DeleteYour seedlings are looking fantastic, did you start your thyme from cuttings or seed?
ReplyDeleteThey're all from seed Mr. H - though I'm planning some cuttings in the next month or so. You can never have too much Thyme :)
DeleteI recently bought some catnep but have not planted the seed yet. What do you use it for?
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by :) Honey bees love it so I'll be planting some around my hive. I also make handmade catnep toys for a local pet shop so the bulk will be for that.
