Better late than never

I REALLY have been behind in planting out new vegetable plants. I haven't put anything in the ground for months.

So this morning the kids and I weeded and planted out heaps of broccoli, beetroot and lettuces.

I noticed when I'd pulled out my old pumpkin vines and tidied up the remains of the summer garden that several little seedlings (broccoli and cabbage) that never thrived over that time from being swamped by the pumpkin vines have started to come away. I was really surprised to see them still there (they were planted probably 4mths ago) and now that they get sunlight they're off.
