As the title says i have been going through all my plants that have grown from seed and sorted out the ones that are a bit slow in growing and put them in a different and warmer place.As you will all know you do get a few seeds that take a little while to grow but at the end of the day they will catch up .I was very pleased with the onions and noticed that they have grown about 2" within about 4 days so it does go to show that heat is vital to young plants wether they are veg or flowers. Although i have not grown them before i have some sweet peppers which are now 2" high and i think i will be able to repot them next week end. Before i forget i will be having my camera back on tuesday with out fail so i will be posting some photos during the week i hope.
I went to the secret garden nurseries to day for an hour out and who should be there with his stall was CLIVE CHAPPELL( known as taffy tattie) and he was telling me that a person in scotland known AS JACK DUNNETT was the man who bred the KESTAL and other types of potatos. I also spoke to him about long carrots and he told me that although he does not grow them now he gave me some very valuable info re to keeping the mixture moist for the growing of long carrots. This also applies to parsnips All in all i found that the info i got from him was very interesting and i will certainly put it to use when needed and for the future.
