In a moment of possible rashness, yesterday I decided to plant out the tomatoes into their grow bags. I hope this isn’t too soon. In other matters, the peas and beans are sprouting really well.

    You’re doing so well to get things done this fast given that you’ve only just moved in. Looks like there will be lots of sun this weekend which will bring everything on.
    I am resolving tomatoes will be my new thing for next year.

    I think it was a case of pent-up activity, as I’d been planning it for a month or so before we actually moved, then another week while we unpacked. Planting out the tomatoes at that time seems to have been a mistake, as they’re not looking so happy. I moved them to a sunnier spot, so hopefully they’ll do a bit better, and ordered some nematodes to try to protect them against the evil slugs.
