THE VEGETABLE GROWING THREAD 2018

Always nice to see

 

As opposed to female Cockerels?

 

No No No get with it "M" ...As opposed to the male gender regarding cockerels (male) ... what a size

 

My evil plan to annoy Freddy has worked, loads of root growth

 

Looking good. Is’m heat treated?

 

Ta

They be treated to some heat if I hadn't of got them out the greenhouse first thing

 

Just sown some seeds

 

My January sown self branching celery is growing well under lights (both T5s and cheapo LEDs), might have to construct a cloche within a polytunnel to protect it as it'll probally be ready for planting out at the end of April, will try and delay planting some by potting up into deep rose pots.

I sowed some more in February and have sown some more today, so I should find out which early sowing works the best.




P.S. @Zigs When did you sow that Land Cress

 

It sowed itself, had tomatoes there beforehand

 

Fellow members ...can anyone of you help this new member please ..as your knowledge is in what's being asked

Help! How to tackle large containers?

 

Still dry and fine here with a little sun left; sunshine all morning . Kidding myself
I think that it will not snow here!!!
Potted on a few annuals, took more pelargonium cuttings and loosened veg patch soil for planting out onion sets in a few days. Resisted the temptation to cut back the dogwoods .....I want to hang on a little longer to the scene of a speckled white hellebore in the distance behind the red stems A white arum lily also contrasted well until the Beast from the East collapsed it last week
Pelargoniums in pots outside have suffered....... they have survived the past 3 years or so outside.....so yanked them out. They even flowered at times over the winter but a chance now to ring the changes
Oops! Posted on the veg growing thread

 

It's okay Zigs, when it comes to growing your own veggies, I suppose that quality is more important than quantities!

I have never tasted Oca before tho...

 

Neither have I yet On @Steve R's advice i've replanted in the greenhouse

 

That's hilarious Zigs. Maybe you don't even like how it tastes like. If I were you I would try a little piece of it and if it's any good, then I would grow it... lol
