    Good evening Charles and guests, My question is this, with the Warmer, Wetter, Winter almost behind us do you or any other Growers, on these fine Forums, anticipate bravely bringing forward some sowing/planting times to take advantage of this relatively frost free season or do you think it would be better to play it safe, sticking to the tried and tested methods and final frost dates?. P.s what is with the random, double underscored green highlights ?

     I prefer to keep sowing dates the same, rather it is planting dates which come earlier because seedlings grow faster in the greenhouse in milder weather.

    Over the years I have lost many plants from sowing too early, in spells of warm weather in early spring, it is such a waste. Be cautious!

    Not sure what you mean about the green underscores, sounds like a website or software issue?

    o.k. I just thought it might be worth risking a few cheeky plantings to take advantage of our new mediterranean-esque climate. I did lose some Courgette and Sweetcorn plantings in a frost last may but fortune favours the brave or was it the reckless fool?
