Sowing Next Batch Of Seeds

I decided to plant my next batch of seeds today. As I said in my last post, I had mixed results with the tomato seeds that I had planted earlier. A lot of the plant grew too leggy and had to be binned.

I wondered if the compost I had used was a factor so I went out and purchased a 25 litre bag of John Innes Seed Sowing Compost (£5.99, Homebase).

I planted a large selection of seeds in the spaces I had in my 4 windowsill propagators. The fruit/veg I planted included:

Toms:
Ildi
Red Pear
San Marzano 2
Tigerella
Orange Berry
F1 Sun Gold
Sweet 'n' Neat Yellow
Green Zebra

Tom-like:
Tomatillo

Strawbs:
Toscana
Yellow Wonder

Pepper:
Orange Baby
Gusto Purple (Chili)

Hopefully I should have some good action. I would love to be able to enjoy such a mixed tomato salad this summer!
