A Seed Saver's Garden

[Decoy1]

I'm thinking sowing is the putting of seeds in soil and planting as transferring seedlings into the outdoor garden? I'm not 100% sure. I'm not even certain the last 2 days were ideal for potting up into bigger containers, or what that's called on the calendar? I guess I'm pretty loosey goosey when it comes to everything but 'rest' days when you aren't supposed to sow seeds. I have tried to align planting carrots in the 'root vegetable' sowing window too. I guess it's a bit of a juggle between fitting things in those lunar windows and seasonal time constraints.

Yes, I definitely reckon to use the two words in that way - sowing for seeds and planting for plants. I find it difficult when I hear the word ‘plant’ used for what I think of as sowing. Quite useful to have a clear distinction between the two I think.

I’ve always sown and planted as and when time, opportunity and nature allow. For me, introducing a further constraint would just be too much of a handicap. One day, I’ll perhaps monitor and see whether no sowing days create poor results but until then I’ll just muddle on!
