Todays gardening

Even though I’m in the process of developing a plan for growing all my veg over the next year, I have sown some more seeds this morning. I want to make sure that I have plenty of fresh veg to eat over the coming months. Today I had sown the following seeds:

Cucumber ‘Mini White’-harvest in 8 weeks
Capsicum ‘Sweet Chocolate’-harvest in 12 weeks
Chilli ‘Joes Long Cayenne’-ready in15 weeks
Cabbage ‘Red Drumhead’-ready in 14 weeks
Spring onion ‘Evergreen Trident’-ready in 9 weeks
Bean ‘Speckled Cranberry’-ready in 10 weeks
Cauliflower ‘Mini’-ready in 18 weeks
Brussels sprouts ‘Long Island’-ready in 23 weeks
Broccoli ‘Waltham Organic’-ready in 9 weeks
Tomato ‘Tigerella’-ready in 10 weeks
Beetroot ‘Heirloom Mix’-ready in 8 weeks
Beetroot ‘Bulls Blood’-ready in 8 weeks
Capsicum ‘Mini Sweet Mix’-ready in 15 weeks

I am happy with all my other plants so far too. Despite the rain and the wind over the past week or so, everything is still alive and growing well. There are plenty of flowers out and some colourful leaves from the cabbage and beetroot. I have some very tiny tomatoes and three poppy flower buds. I’m hoping for a productive 2024 in my garden!
