I meant to move soil today, but Emma came round and didn't fancy anything heavy - she's stressed about work stuff and not sleeping well - so we just put in some lettuce seeds and transplanted some sweet peas instead.
So here's what's happening inside, and in the greenhouse.
Aubergines.
Beetroot.
Broccoli.
Cauliflowers.
Carrots (sown maybe a month ago).
Dwarf French beans, which have shot up really fast.
Huckleberries.
Lettuce, also from a month ago. It'll grow much quicker now it's warmer.
Melon.
Peas - also grow very fast.
Peppers and chillies.
Pumpkin.
Spinach.
Squash. There's 28 of these, in 6 varieties. I was hoping that maybe 2 of each would survive, but all except two are still with us (the two never germinated). Looks like some might be given away...
Tomatillos - the second attempt. Fungus killed the last lot.
Tomatoes, which just came through the other day.
Watercress.So there you are, some green stuff for a change!
I'm hoping to be able to harvest the first crop (mixed lettuce/salad leaves) in 3-4 weeks. Won't that be fun?

So exciting when those little green heads pop up... and I love it that your "dwarf" bean plants are bigger than most of the others!
ReplyDeleteIt had been a couple of weeks since I checked your blog. Wow! What a happy surprise! Makes me want to go out and tear up some rock (my yard is very very rocky).
