Newbie here seeking advice!

I know - it`s the way me muvver put me `at on.

 

Welcome to Gardeners Corner. Now. SLOW DOWN. Top marks for your enthusiasm. Georgia you are trying too hard. Cut back on what you are growing. OK. compile a list of what you want to grow. Now read throgh that list an subdivide into groups. This is a decorative plant. This is a vegetable. ASk yourself. Do I really need to start veggies off in trays or pots. Vegis will be at their best if sown into the open ground. Now to the containers. I've heard of egg trays being used. Toilet roll centers being used for starting sweetpeas off, yourgat pots etc. Take your pick. My advice at this stage is. Reduce your growing list. Be selective and grow and learn at a steady pace.

 

I stand corrected I'd forgotten they were led lights.

 

Yeah, but who needs LED light when we are getting 15+ hours of daylight.

 

Pete extra lighting is nice ...especially at night

 

last year I bought a sunflower in a pot from Morrisons for £1.50. It was lovely. It didn't last long.



G.

 

What happened there Gary ...it looks like never reached it

 

Hmmm, 16 hours less three minutes here @pete. Yes, I know I'm boasting!

 

That will teach you , this year buy a £5 one and it will last longer ,

Seriously i just chucked some in a bucket out of the bird food and they have popped up they add interest to the garden and the kids love them as well as the big kids and birds and bees

 

These should come alright Martin if they keep fighting back

 

I do own a cat but they never come into my room, likely I burnt them on the LED maybe :shy:

 

It cant be the cat then, cat wee has lots of nitrogen in it and not good for young plants.
