I must get round to taking some photos but I keep meaning to and then not doing it... we have spent some time planting seeds in the cold frame as well as some in to the garden itself. Three raised beds still need to be dug in, all are constructed though.
I can't remember the full list in the cold frame, but it includes tomatoes (6 varieties), chillies (6 varieties), broccoli, kale, peas (various) beans, courgette, peppers, strawberries, sunflowers, borage, nasturtium and passion fruit (showing no signs of life). Direct in the ground we have carrots, shallots, onions, garlic and 110 potatoes (three varieties).
The weeds are certainly growing very enthusiastically but the mulching we did with leaves and straw has slightly suppressed them in the raised beds. The onion bed has rather a lot of weeds and as we planted the onions through the straw it is rather difficult to pull them without disturbing the onions, we will just have to leave it and see how it goes.
I will update with some photos soon - we have a load more stuff we need to plant soon.
