Time marching on sowing getting done

I am now getting settled in to my new nursery and surroundings over in Somerset however we have yet to find a house to rent over there so at the moment I am still commuting back and forwards between Cornwall and Somerset.

I go over to the nursery on Mondays and stay down at my parents in Sherbourne just over the Dorset border during the week and travel up to the nursery from there Tue to Thur and then go back home to Cornwall on Thursday evening for the weekend.

I have already made significant progress with the sowing having sown Aubergines, Celeriac, Celery, Cabbages, Calabrese, Cauliflowers, Onions, Brussels, Hot Peppers, Sweet Peppers, Parsnips, Broccoli, Spinach, Carrots, Turnips, Komatsuna, Mizuna, Lettuce, Globe Artichokes, Leeks, Tomatoes, Chicory, Salad Leaves, Mustard, Sorrel, Chinese Chives, Minutina, Dandelion, Mibuna, Leaf Radish, Choy Sum, Senposai, Amaranth, Namenia, Kintsai, Peas, Broad Beans, Rhubarb, Beet Leaf, Pak Choi, and Raddichio as well as over 1000 pots of Herbs and 300 pots of Sweet Peas.

At least were having far better weather than last year since Christmas it has been not to bad down here in the South West last year we were snowed in in February and March so I am hoping for a proper Spring this year.

Here are some pictures of the Nursery:
