Seedbed Two

So, first sowing of the new set of seeds today. I think that I've sown all the varieties of seed that need to be germinated in a propagator now, as the rest are all direct sow. I expect to do at least one more sowing of most seeds though, in order to have a longer season. I've been buoyed by even more seedlings poking their little heads up this morning, with my first tomato, courgette, spinach and oregano seedlings showing. I'm going to have to think about potting on for some soon and getting my little greenhouse up. Very hard to believe how  oddly happy this is making me. Who knew?
Anyway on with the list:

Balanced precariously on a pile of lego boxes in son's room

Red Pear Tomato Mr Fothergills. Seedlings usually appear in 7-14 days. Transplant when 10-15cm tall. Vigorous, bushy plant. Plant out 45cm apart.

Transplant seedlings to 3inch pots when big enough to handle.Gradually acclimatise before planting out in final situation in early June, 45cm apart

Alpine Strawberries Suttons. These have gone in late, and they're on the brink of their use by date, so this, like the Marigolds is a bit of a chance effort. Germination 10-30 days. Transplant when big enough to handle into 2inch pots. Grow on, finally planting out 30cm apart each way. Water and feed regularly.

Sweetcorn Incredible F1. Mr Fothergills. Seedlings appear in 7-21 days. Gradually acclimatise before planting out. Plant in blocks, 40 cm each way.

Courgette Defender F1 Thompson and Morgan (Heavy yields! Virus Resistant!) My seccond variant of courgette. Seedlings usually appear in 7-10 days. Gradually acclimatise for 10-15 days before planting out 60cm apart.

God only knows where I'm going to end up putting this stuff.
