I had to prick out the Watermelon seedlings as they germinated, as they were struggling badly in the cold weather, plus the seed coats were stuck on almost all of them. I'v removed the seed coats by hand as they just aren't strong enough to do it themselves.
Hopefully this will help them kick on and get some size now, but I still may germinate a few more.
I have, if they grow - Warpaint, Moon & Stars and Sugar Baby.

Today I sowed my seasons seeds, rather than growing seeds for my seedling sale. I sowed seeds for 10x varieties of Tomatoes, some more Candy Cane Capsicums, two varieties of Eggplant, Rosella and some Sweet Peppers.
Now to sit and wait for germination.
Hopefully the seedlings for the Seedling Sale get a move on now and I can empty out the hothouse and give my seedlings a month on their own.

Since we lifted and resowed the bed. spreading out the corms over the whole bed, here's what's happened since then.
We only managed two flowers since the moved, but gee the bed ended up looking great as it grew and filled up.
Here's what it looks like mid July, four months later.

Almost at the end of July and the seedlings for my Seedling Sale are all germinated and pricked out into their own pots. The first video shows the plants on the north side of the hothouse.

Growing Carrots is a great way to help get some of these nutritional vegetables both on the table and in the freezer.
We've grown Chantoney, Paris Market and Baby Carrots this year and we are reaping great rewards from them. The Paris Market are a ball type carrot that are easily pulled because of the shortness, but these are great eating carrots, I prefer them boiled.
As with all Carrots, they take some time to get to the eating stage, but the wait is well worth it.
