Ready to Grow

Here are the first pictures of the new spring cabbages. I've cloched them to try to prevent the slugs and snails getting at them so early on, but will have to remove them soon as they won't fit inside!

I've also sown some winter gem lettuces. Now, it's a case of waiting a little longer so I can transfer them outside. I'm gong to grow them as a catch crop, between the rows of broad beans, so we'll see what happens.

These colourful seedlings are Rainbow Lights chard. Hopefully, not only will it provide colour and texture in the border next to the wall, but we'll also be able to use the smaller stalks as spring greens.
