Greenhouse

I've sent for some seeds of one I had a plant of last year - Sweet Million.
Loads of tiny sweet fruit. Says it can be grown in a sunny spot outside.
My daughter loved them and I liked them too even though I usually like my tomatoes big.
I grow mine under cover since I had a really bad year when they all got blight.

posted a couple of weeks ago that we were planning to get a greenhouse; DH ordered it yesterday and it arrived (in boxes) today. Too cold to attempt erecting it today (3'C in Herefordshire!) will use all your suggestions when we've managed the building job. everyone

I planted seeds from last year of the Sweet Million. Decided they weren't coming up, so sent for another pack.
Meanwhile I looked at the pot and thought well I will water it anyway...this at 7.30 am....at 8. 30 there were 2 seedlings! I now have 6. Duh.
The new pack just arrived.

Greenhouse now erected; Sweet Million seeds will be started tomorrow unless you've got a few seedlings to spare Oxon70?

I bought (same as last year) some cheapie seeds from a cut price supermarket and sowed them in my polythene plant shelter - they are all coming up a treat. The only ones I couldn't get were dwarf dahlias so I bought a packet from a garden centre which cost me more than all the others put together and, a month on, there is no sign of them; not a flicker. First time I've had a failure with dahlia seeds. Hey ho.

Wish I had, eGJ.
Murphy's law was acting, but the 6 are now 2, as four of them got 'damped off' - sprayed the others and so far they are ok.
But guess what, the new seeds haven't produced yet.

But I have two striped cucumber seedlings come up. I mean the cucumbers are supposed to be striped!
A new fancy. Last year I grew lemon apple cucumbers, interesting.

DH bought two Sweet Million tomato plants at a Plant Sale, so they are now in grow-bags shivering like the rest of us Oxon70 cucumber seedlings yet to push through the soil. Will update you when they think it's warm enough!

Three nights this last week I have put bubblewrap round my small pear tree, which is flowering for the first time, planted in 2010 - so far it seems ok.

I had the seedlings in the passage by the house for the night, as it's a little warmer - I now have (goes to check!) two cucumbers out of three, and two SM tomatoes - and one which I don't think is a tomato...but I will let it grow for now, and evict it later if I am sure! Must put them back in the greenhouse soon.

Two of each is actually enough. Limited room under cover.
