I think you have been bitten by this so called Gardening Bug Twiams. The bad news is, there is no cure is available. ;D

You can never have too many packets of seeds .....the back of the packet will tell you when to sow...

Lou said it. Just read the information on the seed packet. Have a look at these over a cup of coffee and sort out what you have.
If you need information, we are all here and want to encourage you.

Plan for today....
Get outside if the sun stays out and the rain stays away, and put up a small flower patch at the front of the house under the window with a nice willow border. Gonna plant pretty much all my flower seeds in there as i want it to look pretty. Also, maybe weed the old sink thats used as a giant flower pot in the back garden and maybe plant some nice veggies in there depending on whats suitable.
Wish me luck !

So i decided to spend a bit of time out the back instead of front so no flower patch as of yet, but i did repot some things and sow new things yay ;D So here we go. I repotted my peppers, parsley and put in some chives in the old kitchen sink. Please excuse the guinea pig cage top over the sink, i put it there to stop cats pee'ing on it as they tend to dig it up whenever the sink is uncovered (it usually has old patio slabs on top) Put my lucky gardening mole and racoon in the pot alongside them to hopefully win me some luck ! Using the old plant pots after repotting my other plants i've put some seeds for the mixed leafy lettuce and they're in the kitchen window to hopefully act like a bit of a greenhouse untill there big enough to go outside in the sink along side everything else ! My tomatoes and sunflowers have been enjoying the sunshine ! and my next project is to sort these out ... and hopefully help this mini tree !

Gutted to find that something seems to have eaten all my parsley, either that or the weather has just killed it off It's practically all gone, with a few bits of green that i doubt will recover and grow A few peppers still look alive and well though, and i've seen some little sprouts from the chives i think ! Also mixed lettuce is just coming through too !
