When did you sow your seeds in the cold greenhouse. Is your greenhoue at an allotment or at home

my green house is at home, I sowed most of the seeds around 7 weeks ago then when I went away I transferred them to my daughters greenhouse planted most of them out last week with more sowings this last couple of days, I know its early but I spend a lot of time in spain so have to take chances

Thank for this. It is very helpful
I think it should be ok for me to start sowing the items you mentioned in my cold greenhouse at the allotment around mid February.
Did you have to give extra protection to the plants at night like covering with fleece?
Pl advise
