Apologies for not responding earlier, I forgot my password and it took me 5 days to remember it, having had to log into another computer after leaving my iPad charger at my cousin’s in Gloucestershire.
I have indeed made a few sowings using the February full moon, notably Kelsae (singles) and van Rijnsburger onions (clumps) on 5th February (back ups in early March); Medania Spinach, Greyhound Cabbage and Alderman peas (for shoots) on 9th February, the leaf day 2 days before full moon, along with some soil blocks with Ishikura salad onion seeds in them.
I sowed my early tomatoes one week late (as I was away first w/e of February) yesterday (Red Alert, Masktotka) along with my home made chilli seeds.
Today I am sowing some Boltardy Beetroot and French Breakfast radish, both with 3 or 4 seeds per module.
The onions are germinating well (with heat from below), the spinach and cabbage showed first signs of germination 2 days after sowing and now have plenty of white extensions from the seeds (no covering).
For the record, I sowed Aquadulce Claudia broad beans in modules at the January full moon, as my December sowings in the ground failed to germinate. They did very well and have all taken well in the ground, transplanted just before the mild wet week at the beginning of February.
After today, I am dormant until early March in terms of sowing, except possibly one more module tray of radish.
