First haul of ‘Burmese Sour’ tomatoes, no filter here. They taste amazing, with the right amount of tartness as their name suggests they’re a touch sour and if you’re a foodie, these lend themselves superbly to curries. if you’re interested in getting your hands on some, they are in my shop ☺️

🍆 coming in thick and fast 🍆

I love them and these were grown from seed sown in February, kept on a heat mat and then moved outdoors. Once warm enough. stephaniehafferty this one’s for you, for saying that I’d never be able to produce them properly without grow lights.

Reminder of what veggies you can sow this week.
Mad to think we are already sowing for food to be ready in spring , how time flies 🚀

Such a drought here in Sussex, i’m getting a good work out every day running up and down the stairs with bath water.! Seedlings dry out so fast so I keep mine in shade while they are germinating.

Good luck and keep your fingers crossed 💧

Anyone else do this… or is it just me? 🍅😂

I could squeeze cherry tomatoes all day.

The seeds. The squish. So satisfying.

Who’s saving tomato seed this year?

Brilliant time to sow for harvesting later in the year so here is a reminder of what you can sow this week. Growth rate slows down from late August so get these seeds in now to take advantage of the daylight. Obviously most of us are struggling with water supplies so I would use module trays sat on capillary matting so you have less risk of drought, new seedlings will fail if they don’t have good water so take care not to let them dry out. Hopefully by the time these sowings are ready to pop in the ground we will have had some rain ( Sussex ). If you don’t have water issues then i am very jealous ha ha 💧💧

For those of us struggling .. Bon Courage my friends 🤞

Most people sow one courgette seed per pot…

I don’t. 😅

I pack dozens into one tray, let them develop a really strong root system, then gently separate them before potting them on.

✔️ Saves loads of compost.
✔️ Saves greenhouse space.
✔️ Makes watering much easier.
✔️ I end up with strong, healthy plants ready for the garden.

I’ve grown them like this for years and it works brilliantly.

If you’d like to grow your own this summer, my home-saved courgette seeds (along with loads of other unusual vegetable varieties) are available in my Etsy shop.

Which team are you…
🌱 One seed per pot?
or
🌱 Mass sowing?

Most people grow leeks for dinner.

I grow some for seed.

A few days is all it takes for that papery casing to split open and reveal one of the most spectacular flowers in the veg patch.

The bees absolutely love them, the hoverflies queue up for them, and later in the season I’ll be collecting thousands of seeds from just a handful of flower heads.

This is where the seed in my subscriptions starts its journey.

Not in a warehouse.

Not in a packet bought from somewhere else.

Right here, growing in the garden, feeding pollinators before feeding future harvests.

Nature never stops amazing me. 💚

Did you know leek flowers looked like this?
