Seeds 2022
21-4-2022 I had the impulse to buy more seeds (borage, cerinthe and echium Blue Bedder, amongst others) which I sowed in these pellets.
I grow echium Blue Bedder every year so I don't know why I forgot to get seeds this year but I bought some a couple weeks ago. I have one self-seeded borage so thought, I should have more borage, I usually do so bought more seeds. I often have cerinthe self-seeding but don't see any so got more seeds.
12-5-2022 there's been variable germination and lots of slug damage but I ended up with about 6 of each, cerinthe, borage and echium Blue Bedder
I repotted the larger seedlings into larger pots, I left a few of the very slug-damaged seedlings to see if they would still survive
I also bought some seeds at Sainsburys
I forgot to label the trays or to note the date I planted them - both against my rules. I will try to do better next time.
seedlings as of 21-4-2022 and not sure if Bee or Butterfly, will take a photo of the other tray today
the slugs seriously attacked them and I just left them on the ground as I had nowhere else to put them

unknown seedlings
this has been around for a little while, not sure if it's leftover from last year
I don't know if these are from something I sowed (this year or last year) or something self-seeded, if self-seeded, curious that there are two
and those repotted and another I'm not sure of on the right, below are a red deadnettle and verbena bonariensis
