Has Spring sprung? Things are looking up on the weather front so its time to get on with sowing some more seeds.

April is a busy time for seed sowing and I've tried to trim the list down to a manageable amount!

If you’ve got sneaky ninja frosts, then we’ve got the Yakuza! Lol! 🇨🇦👍❤️👩‍🌾❤️👍🇨🇦. I follow your sowing cycling quite closely because of the climate. Love love love Scotland! You’ll love the pati pans…the scalloped squash. Pick them small and often! Yum. Quartered and roasted!!!

Hi Mark, thanks for a great update. I have a spare packet of sweet candle which I can send you if you’re interested. Let me know 😊

I grew kuri squash last year they were delicious & still have 2 in the garage (I’m in Norwich). Grew 2 plants over an arch & used some cut offs of weed membrane as little hammocks 😅

Always nice to grow some flowers with the vegetables. I have gone a bit mad with 3 varieties of cosmos, calendula and 4 types of zinnia. Jo Devon 🙂

Watching this video has just reminded me to get my cucumber, courgettes and butternut on the go! 😊

Happy digging 🌱

Great selection mark. Those Chinese long beans work better in the polytunnel / greenhouse. Mine didn't do well outside. Danny 🌱

Hi Mark,
Best thing to do with the long beans ( chinese noodle beans) is plant it in the polytunnel, for a chance to get a crop..

[DigwellGreenfingers]

Some good choices there Mark. Totally agree with the marigolds: their scent repels pests, the flowers attract parasitic wasps etc and their roots kill soil nematodes 🙂

[myrustygarden]

Great choices Mark and I’m sure you’ll be forgiven for being early 😂. I’m doing marigolds in starters but I’ll direct sow some as well. Have a super weekend hopefully the weather will cooperate, Ali 🇨🇦
