Last Friday morning after a night of rain (and just before the big 20 inches of rain) I planted a good crop of seeds: corn, beans, beetroot, carrot, lettuce, zucchini, and cucumber. The soil temperature is perfect with plenty of moisture - there is no better time to be planting. And now just four days later, the sweet moment has arrived.. corn and beans planted last Friday morning are coming up. Lettuce is up as well. All this after 20 inches of rain! Here I was thinking surely they would of washed away!

If you live on the Eastern side of Australia right now conditions are perfect - now is the best time to be planting heaps of stuff!
It’s one of the special things in life planting a seed and watching it sprout – just take a minute to think about it..
Below is a small selection of what can planted with success just now, so go get planting don’t leave it another day it could be germinating by then!
