Seed sowing and pricking out seedlings. Trimmed Chrysanthemum leaves as mentioned in yesterday's post and took off any leaves affected by White Rust.

Pricked out required numbers of Digitalis ferruginea and Linaria purpurea in P84 modules. Again using Sylvamix. Tray is overfilled then tapped and scored out. Dibber is used - hole put seedling in and then 2 squeezes with dibber only. Working from tray left to right and front to back. Watered in with upturned fine rose. These are place back in House 1 but on unheated bench.
