Getting organised


Seeds sown today

We hired a car yesterday to go to a party, and took advantage of our time to do some moving around of things too bulky to carry down Limehouse Cut. We took the strulch, and a lot of used compost to the plot, and Gordon went and collected a wormery. If you are a Tower Hamlets resident you can buy a large wormery from the Council for only £5.00, which is a bargain. You can also get compost bins, and small wormeries as well. It comes with a voucher to send off for the worms when ready to get it started.

So I have also washed a lot of pots today, and sown tomatoes (alicante) and hot peppers (hungarian wax). I am trying not to sow too many of each variety this year. Last year I grew 48 tomato plants, and gave half of them away. Its great to do that, but space becomes a bit of a problem. I may sow some more later.
