Got myself a lovely gooseberry bush today, a pot of autumn bliss raspbery canes - which have started sprouting and some peas..

Question: I completely forgot to ask about the peas.. in a pot there must be at least 10 seedlings. Are they ok to go out now? I want to put in pots, maybe some in ground if garden ready on time, how many to a pot?

Chimera, the link in your signature doesn't work, i wanted to have a nosey at your gardening pics!

Chimera lovely to see all your seedlings coming through
Your ready to eat salads look fab!!

I cant wait to get my garden now so i can get growing things too.

My moneymaker tomatos are now showing signs of life which amazed me as i`m a complete newbie and almost chickened out of doing seeds and nearly bought a tom plant plant!!

The ready to eat now stuff is a bit of a cheat to be honest, didn't start early enough so bought some plug plants from local farm shop for 6p each!!!! Great while I'm waiting for the rest to grow! May get some more if they have some, can't go wrong for 6p..

6p? That's fantastic.

Yup.. I bought 20!!! A whole £1.20 I love my local farm shop

Hopefully they will have some more as I fancy putting some in a pot - we eat loads of salad

I couldn't view your pics, have you got your privacy settings set too high (on FB)?
I take it the greenhouse will be set up before you even unpack your household boxes.....LOL.
