May 15th - 16th

I put in a bit of effort and sowed most of the seeds.
I had plenty of compost left from last year so I topped-up both of the deep beds and added a little dried seaweed too (all that was left).
The leeks, beetroot and spring onions were all just sprinkled in. I intend thinning them later. The carrots were as usual put as a few seeds, 16 spaces per square foot.
I seem to have forgotten the square at the front! The ones at the back are for potatoes probably, or perhaps the parsnips that are growing indoors.
The Carrot Week carrots are up now, seem to be doing OK and will need thinning soon.

7/8/14 sowed some mixed Italian salad seed and black kale in two squares, and transplanted the parsnips - they did not grow well indoors this time so may not do much at all.
