    hello everyone, I have just managed to join this wonderful forum, I have been reading the posts here for a few weeks but had trouble when trying to join until last night. I am just getting into growing myself some plants for my garden, so far I have some marigolds, busy lizzies, sweet peas and sunflowers.
    I have also got some aloe vera seeds in a pot and some cacti which I am trying. I am loving this new found hobby and wondering what to try growing next. I dont have a big greenhouse just one of the mini ones, and window sills in the house.

    Hi, Sunshine123, I think we all are amazed when those seedlings appear, doesn't matter how many years you've grown your own plants. My sunflowers are refusing to poke their heads up yet so I've put a few of them in the airing cupboard to try and fool'em into thinking it's summer. The sweet peas are already outside under cover and all the windowsill are full of trays.Mad or what? Welcome to the forum.

    Sounds like you'll have a blaze of colour by the summer if all your seeds take ok.

    Hello everyone! I've been away a long time, and thought I'd be polite (that's not like me usually ;) ) and say "Hi" to you all. Hope it's warmer where you are too!

    ps. Not sure if I've put this in the right place! [​IMG]
