Mine are up - on kitchen windowsill, just peeping out. Have some Olive baby plums for outside and some Sungold cherry toms for the greenhouse.

Hi,
I haven't planted mine yet. Some of the glass in my greenhouse has shattered from the high winds about a month ago. DH promises to fix it and put the glass back in this weekend. I'm desperate to get planting. I'm going to do Gardeners Delight again and one other variety but I'm not sure what yet. I did Sungold last year but mine were a bit watery

I've got a broken pane in my greenhouse from a startled pheasant launching itself through it - scared the pants off me. Also no door as the old one fell off. Going to keep my toms inside for a bit.

I wonder what made your Sungolds watery - I'm desperate for some really sweet tasty cherry toms like my Grandad used to grow.

Still waiting for my seeds

i've planted san marzano and black krim, but both very old seeds so might not work. waiting for lilliput cherry toms also. what is it with seed companies is it a surprise to them that we might want to buy something in spring?

watery Sungold - blimey, what an awful disappointment, a warm sungold eaten off the vine in the greenhouse is normally a good substitute for sex when times are tough. And you don't just get one at a time either.

I'm very disappointed my sungolds didn't work - they sound fantastic Maybe I will try again this year.

This is my plan for the weekend; sowing seeds (and lots of them).

I have planted my seeds but only last weekend so nothing happening yet .Will be buying tumbling tomato plants as I can't bear the thought of 1000s of plants again which is what would happen if I bought the seeds!
