We wanted to give a quick progress update on some of the other plants we’re growing that haven’t had much air time lately.
Garlic
They don’t seem to have moved much since the last update, but we’re hoping they’re doing what they’re supposed to be under the surface!
Charisma carrots
These carrots germinated well. You may remember that we sowed three seeds per station. The photos below show their progression from a couple of weeks ago to now. These will need to be thinned out in the next week or two to leave just one seedling per station.
Lettuces
We pricked out four varieties of lettuces into cell trays a few weeks back. These have now been planted out into 10 litre pots and seem to be coming along nicely. They will stay in these pots until maturity now, so just need to keep watering them until then!
Spring onions, radishes and carrots
The other salad vegetables that we sowed at the same time as the lettuces are also coming along alright in their pots. These both take longer to grow to maturity than the radishes, which literally take a matter of weeks! But they’re coming along alright for now.
And finally…one of our first harvests of 2019! The second harvest to come in our next post… Don’t they look delicious?!
