This year we’ve really got into gardening, probably mostly kick-started by the healthy eating project at the Stacey Centre.  This is a place to keep notes on what we’re growing etc.

Strawberries

The girls received a strawberry plant each when they went to the first open day at the Stacey Centre [when].  We’ve re-potted them twice – once into larger pots into the greenhouse and then into a planter, starting in the greenhouse and moved outside once it got warm.

[15 May 2011] They’ve now got lots of fruit coming on them and the first strawberry is ready to eat.

Tomatoes

Grown from plant and seed, initially indoors, then in the greenhouse

[15 May 2011] moved the seedlings into hanging baskets with Basil. The ones we got as plants are now flowering well

Carrots

Grown from seed indoors, then moved to greenhouse.

Broccoli

Grown from seed indoors, then moved to greenhouse.

Peppers

Growing indoors

Leek and Spring Onion

Started indoors from seed, moving to greenhouse and then to a grow bag
