Well, my tomato plants and cucumbers have been outside in the greenhouse now the last couple of weeks. Apart from a small paraffin heater to keep the frosts off on forecast cold nights they have nothing else but the sun.

Have I put them out too early? I may have been conned by the warm first two weeks in April

Nobody else growing fruit or vegetables as well as a car??

Rose bushes and cherry trees yes, something as silly as fruit and veg? Not in my garden!

My wife has some tomato plants out in a cold frame, they seem to be doing alright but they are an outdoor variety. She has some squashes and some peppers growing but they are still in the lean-to, just going out in the day to toughen them up a bit.

My rhubarb is coming on a treat ! will use the leaves for cleaning ally parts

Last year seemed to alternate between the dryest/hottest month on record and the wettest month since 1827. April this year has been the hottest April since records began and also particularly dry. I don't know about tomatoes or greenhouses but I bet it'll rain and rain next month.

Not next weekend I hope!! Stoneleigh !
