Wet at last!

[compostpope]

Thanks for the reply Charles – after another 24 hours the compost is now thoroughly moist, though I still have no idea why it took so long.

I’ve sown part of the tray with Red Baron onions, and aim to fill it with spring onions, Bolthardy beetroot, spinach and lettuce. I gather that onions can take a long while before they are ready to plant out. How long? – and is it worth delaying sowing the other seeds so that I can plant all the plants in the tray at once?

Thanks again
