Now that the stump carrots are sown in the pop bottles they have been put in the 10ft green house until they can be put out into the ground when they have germinated. As i have said i will be putting them by the side of the onions which i have done for a few years now and all seems to grow ok. I have used 40 bottles and all of them has been filled with VITAX Q4 compost . I made a statement about this compost and i would like you to believe me when i say it is one of the best i have used. It does not have any bits or pieces in it like other types of compost so you do not have any waste. I can also say that it does not need to be sieved so you can use it right away for sowing small seed .
Re to the long carrot seed i will be sowing them on the week end into the long pipes which i will cover until germination takes place. Because the weather is still cold i will be covering the top of pipes to help with germination seeing they will be out in the open. I have also decided to grow a few long carrot seed in very small pots just in case i have a bit of a problem with the ones out in the pipes. I suppose you can say it is a back up plan.
UPDATE ON THE TOMS
Well the toms are really growing now and are coming to there second set of leaves so it wont belong before they can be put into 4"pots. In the next couple of days i am hoping to make a 2ftx2ft nursery box so that when the toms have been repotted they can be put in it so they can grow into sturdy plants.
That is all for now till later on.
