I'm planting pea seeds that I saved from last years crop. It's late Summer and I want to find out if now is too early to plant peas or not.

Peas are a cool-season crop so I'm wondering if now is too early for them.

I planted Stewart F1 tomato seeds.

 Surfing around the interwebs last week, as you do on a rainy day, and I found myself on the Lambley Nursery website looking up tomato seeds.

You wouldn't believe it but there on the page is "Stewart F1", Tomato seeds for sale.

There was nothing left to do, but hit the add to cart button and get me a packet.

To add to the attraction it claims to have Terrific disease resistance as well.

I've been locked down! For three days.

 While I’m a fan of erring on the side of caution.

I did get caught up in the latest Greater Brisbane area lockdown.

My No.1 Goal for 2021 and Happy New Year.

 Happy new year to each and every one of you. My wish is for all your wildest dreams to come true, especially mine.

I've wanted a raised garden bed from Birdie Garden Products for some time now and I've made the decision that 2021 is the year. It's going to tack some work and time but I'm 100% determined to get this done.

Wish me luck.
