Notes

Planted in the potato bed as an experiment. Shoudl be ready by the end of September in time for the spring potato plantings. I planted them under a temporary frame covered with bird netting to stop sparrows pecking at the pea shoots and blackbirds digging up the seeds. Sparrows and blackbirds are a big problem in my garden

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
