I have had some early potatoes in for a couple of weeks but with no real signs of life, but then ground temps have been unseasonably low with a couple of late frosts. Thought they were gone so planted out some onions over the weekend. Oops.

Quite a lot of things germinating in the greenhouse - caulis, rocket, radicchio - so I decided to move the chili plants I overwintered out yesterday and repotted them. Again, time will tell whether the frost makes that a mistake but at least 4 of them have a decent bit of growth so I have reasonable hopes that some of them will make it. Herb garden refreshed and some of the woodier plants replaced.

Weekend after Easter will see the beetroot/carrot/parsnip/radish seeds going in. Desperate for signs of life from the asparagus, but there's time yet.

Also we are experimenting with nematodes to kill the slugs, will update if/when there are any results.
