Total Allotment Time: 3hrs.Principle Tasks: Planting out the aforementioned radishes and covering them with fleece as pictured. Planting out red shallot 'Pikant' sets (20+ (I managed to 'break a few up' as you would garlic bulbs to get a few more than the 20 in the £1.29 packet) into veg bed 01. Adding 6 marigold seedlings and the multi-sown 'White Lisbon' spring onion that I brought up from home to the pre-fab cloche near the rhurbarb.
Notes: Average soil temp of veg bed 01 = +5c

Hi Tim ,
Spoken off a Siberian plateau :o(
it is verry cold indeed and that afther a week off spring temperatures from 19c
The radishes will appreciate it that you are covering them with a horticultural fleece ~~ I would to :O)
The meadow cranesbill looks verry healthy to me now. Perhaps , growing in a pot was nothing for him .
Best Regards,
Rita :O)
Hi Rita,
Wow! I'm really encouraged by our weather forecast here for the week ahead - full sun for five days in a row! Hopefully it's the same for you in Belgium..
Best Regards,
Tim :o)x
PS. After replying to these I'm aiming to go check up on how your house 'n' garden's coming along - good I hope!
Hi Jimmy! Yes, I've banked on it being an early spring :o)
> Any idea when the right time is to prune one of the globossa type?
Wait until after it's flowered (this is according to Garden Organic - almost always good advice there I think).
> are you ready for that final shove to finish the beds?
Yesterday I managed to turn some soil over in preparation of continuing another, and what with this sunny forecast ahead, who knows - maybe by the end of March 2008? :o;
Best!
Tim :o)x
