The Allotment in March | It is time for Tomatoes & Potatoes

Dear Friends,

Finally, it's the moment you've all been waiting for...it's time to sow tomatoes!

As usual in my garden, things did not go to plan but I adapted and we got stuff done. 6 varieties of tomatoes plus cucumbers, aubergine, cosmos and potatoes. It's been a busy weekend. I've also unveiled my new garden arch. This was ridiculously cheap from Amazon, I was super sceptical but I have been pretty impressed with the quality. I haven't grown anything up it yet, so my doubt could be vindicated. If you are interested the link to the exact one (three) I purchased in below. I had some sound problems during filming this week, please do not judge me too harshly for this.

I am curious how you all keep your seeds organised. Do you have a system? I feel like I am drowning in packets of seeds this year and I can never find the seeds I need in any given moment. Likewise, do you record what you've sown and your successes/failures? I am eager to learn how to get better at both of these things, please share your tips in the comments.

Seeds sown:
Tomato - Orange Banana
Tomato - Amish Paste
Tomato - Aurora
Tomato - Grushouka
Tomato - Jen's Tangerine Cherry
