My “adventures” in growing veg continue…
I’ve successfully transplanted the courgette, chard, carrots, Brussels sprouts and tomato.
They’re all still alive and seem to be doing well. Probably about two to three weeks since I first planted.
The real test will be if I can keep them going until they yield something edible, but I’ve enjoyed doing it so far in any event.
I got a kit for Christmas with little biodegradable pots, dehydrated compost and five different types of seeds for slight more “unusual” veg – purple carrots, yellow courgette, purple Brussels sprouts, tigerella tomatoes and colourful chard.
I’ve always wanted to have a go at growing my own veg, so when spring came around, I finally gave it a go.
So far it has been relatively straightforward, with nature doing all the work really. We’re a long way from getting to plants a size and quantity that make a meal though!
I’ll let you know how it goes but so far I’m especially impressed with the courgette (of course, that’s my least favourite veg of the bunch!).
