two threads generaly the same conversation.
i would normaly sow onion seeds, not sets , seeds, in january and parsnips and leeks in february.
last year i missed the boat completely because i was still expecting more frosts and snow in april and so i did not plant any seeds untill april and really did miss the march start.
so what is the general opinion for the winter spring starts on the allotments.
i think we are going to have a few frozen weeks in feb but thats it (feet are now firmly planted inside ones throat for when we have snow in april!!
so to back up the talk with the walk i went to my local garden shop today and brought four packets of seeds, parsnip, onion, leeks.
what do you lot think?
