First seeds of 2012 in!

Winter has been quite mild so far, but we're having our first heavy frosts of the year. It was -5C in the greenhouse last night! Still, I got itchy green fingers and made a start on planting some seeds in the heated propagator Santa brought me for Xmas. Made my own seed compost too. 50% multi-purpose compost with 50% silver sand (the play-pit stuff). Sieved it well and let it stand in the house for a few days to bring it up to room temperature.

 Decided to plant the following:

• Tomato - Marmade
• Pepper - King of the North 
• Celery - Green Utah
• Parsley - Green Forest
• Onions - Red Baron
• Calabrese - Ironman
• Cauliflower - Mayflower

Just a few of each to start off with. Who knows, some of them may survive the early start!
