Last sowings
Well, in an attempt to have some kind of winter crop, I have made a last ditch effort to sow some seeds. In the cold frame are:
More rain today. The top soil is still dry but underneath I noticed it was rather cool and moist so at least some water has soaked down.
- red radicchio lettuce, winter scarole and some summer lettuce,
- more Monoruba beetroot (the last lot died in the heat)
- Curly red kale
- winter cauliflower (starting to realise why I have never grown it before, it's a bloody pain in the arse!)
- Durham Early spring cabbage.
