I have found a temporary solution to the problem of all the pots of cuttings...a sunny spot near the water tank under the protection (from frost) of the Carob tree. More cuttings will be potted up next week. I also found room for another small raised bed for some winter greens to be planted out. The seedling stand has been moved there too for more sunshine.The next lot of propagation will be Seeds of Root crops which can be sown on the 18th and 19th of May.
