The Veg. Garden progresses at snailpace! No good for my Cheshire head!

Thank goodness for some rain showers.  At last the little Alderman pea shoots have started to push through, and the silverskin onions have begun to germinate.  Not much left to do.  Sprouts and Primo cabbage plants need putting alongside the Tenderstem Broccoli under the big cloche (to keep out the Cabbage Whites and Wood Pigeons). The Globe Artichoke seedlings in the  greenhouse have roots coming out of the pots (10cm) so should I risk hardening off and planting out. Have we had the last hard frost?  That is the question. Sweet corn and Fr. Bean Cobra pose a similar problem.  Anyway, look at the garlic!! This is Red Duke - new to me. Behind is Carcassonne,Casablanca, Provencal.
