I bet you're not far behind Dawn with all the seeds you've been growing this year ;-)

Lol Kathy. I have so many plants yet to go out that arent quite big enough, trouble is, its been the worst year ever for young plants, I'm forever trying to find the ones I have planted out, watering can in hand. I've really enjoyed growing them though, you've certainly given me the bug.

Know what you mean, I have loads in pots, have the new bed nearly ready but its at the bottom of the garden, too far to keep going down to water, much better were they are at the moment all together in pots, may leave till autumn then plant them, if I can find enough big pots to keep potting them on,lol.

The spricking out and potting on is never ending, is it. I need more compost, yet again. I'll have to wait until Autumn too I'm thinking, before I can set them out. Besides the garden needing rain I hope it will so I can prick out in the greenhouse, feel guilty doing it when lots of other jobs to do. Keep eating the yoghurts then Kathy so you can use the pots.

Lol, most have outgrown yoghurt pots Dawn, got some delphiniums 4ft tall flowering in their pots,lol, yes I've had to go for yet more compost this week too, think I keep Focus in business,lol.

Lol Kathy, the watering is a nightmare, isnt it, so many of mine are far too small to plant out, especially in these conditions. Your's sound like they're enjoying being in pots.
