I had every intention of finishing what I started on the plot today when I saw the glorious sunshine at 9 am. But it slowly got darker and started spitting with rain. No worries I thought, I’ll get a few things done at home.

Then it rained!

So all I got done was to sow some mustard. lettuce and carrots.
I’ve never really tried over winter crops before. All I did with these was to sprinkle them on some multipurpose compost in seed trays and pots and cover with a centimeter of compost.
These were put in the new cold frame that I put together yesterday. I bought a pair of these from Lidl a year ago and one has served me well all year.
This one on Amazon is the same but with different branding:  Aluminium Coldframe
