April

The good weather continues. My tomatoes, lettuce and Spring onions, that I sowed indoors, haven't done anything useful whilst I've been away so I've topped up the tomatoes indoors, hopefully I still have time for them to germinate. I've now sown lettuce and Spring onions outside. I've planted some potatoes, the onions are growing well and all the trees have blossom so hopefully there will be good crops. Now all depends on what frosts we get over the next few weeks and no-one can do anything about that.
April 28th
The good weather didn't persist for long and the temperature dropped considerably, to the point that it snowed on the mountains, though not here.
I have now sown; leeks and sugar snap peas (mangetout), that's a first so I'll see how they do. I've also sown more lettuce and spring onions though the first sowing hasn't done any thing yet, I'll probably end up with them all germinating at once. I have 3 small tomato plants indoors, the time has come to start looking for plants to plant out.
One apple tree has blossom but the other has done nothing but I look to have quite a few cherries and the pear tree will be loaded again this year. Another month and I should have something out of my garden.
