The sunny but cold weather of last week changed yesterday to overcast and showers. I should have gone out last night on a slug hunt.
I checked under the cloche cover of the garden veg box and found a slug. Threw it away and stamped on it. But that was not all… I found this:
There were two of these, both now squished, but it was too late:
There are still some seedlings unaffect.
Back in the house, the seedlings are doing well. Some will need potting on but I lack window space again. A second lot of basils have all germinated - red bordeaux, lemon and sweet genovese.
I shifted the marigold tray to the windowsill but lost grip on the tray. Only the one lot of marigolds were affected:
Compost went everywhere but a dustpan and brush managed to sort the mess.
