Slight sowing panic.... and Mr. Fothergill's

Every year around this time I seem to fall into a slight sowing panic. There are soooo many seeds, and just not enough warm space to start all the warmth-loving seeds.

Here is just a tiny selection of seeds that need to be started indoors.

Remember the package I received from Mr. Fothergill's? Well, here are the two seed cups. Parsley and tomato. Just follow the instructions. Here are all the components. It's pretty straight-forward and easy. Also a bonus - especially when the weather is still wild and woolly - that you can do it all indoors and don't have to venture out into the cold.

Add water to the jiffy blocks.

Let them soak up the water.

Stir (I used a chopstick).

Sprinkle the tomato seeds over and cover lightly. The packet contained a very generous number of seeds. So at some stage after germination, I'll have to thin them out or transplant them all.

Cover with the lids and wait for things to happen.
