No dig diary, 4th February 2024

More seed sowing today. Red (I also have yellow) beetroot (Sanguina) sown four seeds to a cell in a twenty-cell module tray and a couple of similar trays of peas for shoots sown four seeds to a cell — I’d normally sow three, but the seed is a few years old so I thought I’d sow an extra one “for luck”. There were flowers in the plan for today too: Lobelia, which has the tiniest seeds ever, and Busy Lizzies, both for my wife to plant out in the garden. I sowed a tray of each, leaving sufficient seeds for a couple more sowings over the next few weeks. They’ll go into the propagator once they’ve had a decent soak.
