Like every good gardener should!

LOL!

I decided to review last years blog entries for August and there was plenty of talk of late frosts and a feel of spring in the air. So, having learnt from last year and losing my first batch of corn seedlings (what was I thinking?!) that I don't have any plan just yet for getting some of those later seeds going just yet.

I do have another batch of brassica's to go out and other seeds are still popping through the surface of the seed mix. So will be at least another 4-6 wks away till they can go in the ground anyway by which time (going by last years entries) the frosts should be pretty much over.

Potatoes I may still put out since they will remain underground for a week or two and then I can easily protect them with a layer of straw if needed.

So, always a good idea to learn from past mistakes and endeavour to not repeat them!

Good move checking on trends - I'll have to remember to do that next year. This is my year of making mistakes lol. So far everything is going ok though (crossed fingers!)

I find it SO hard not to plant everything now! I wish spring would hurry up *sigh*
