Very satisfying results.

 


What can be more satisfying to see, than those first few tomatoes grown from seed by yourself?

I sowed my seeds at the end of February, so we'd have the tomatoes early in June.. however  they were in one of our little plastic green houses outside and were drowned, when we had deluge of rain and we then discovered the plastic had disintegrated and the rain had poured in!

So I sowed more in early April and wow they grew into a good size plant in weeks.. and here they are forming fruits already!

Lesson learnt no point sowing seeds so early. I'm delighted,. And we have had our own carrots, potatoes, lettuce and we've had rhubarb every week.. so satisfying! Beans, cabbages and peas to come.. you don't need an allotment or even a large garden to grow your own, most of ours is grown in bags and pots..what do you grow?
