Hello all,I put a polytunnel up towards the end of last summer.Since then I have received three of Charles’ books as gifts and now ignore the planting guides on the back.Whilst I’m ok on tomatoes and the like,I need help with the melons.
I have access to a frost free g/house but not sure on the length of the growing cycle,and not really sure when to sow.Any advice would be greatley appreciated…
Oh and I am in Lincolnshire..

Paul it should be in the books, maybe not all. Sow no earlier than late March and mid April is fine, giving as much warmth as you can.
