Vegies of the moment

If you remember, way back when, I did a post about my vegie garden. I have since added a new planter box and filled it up with goodies.


My vegies of the moment


The 2 planter boxes


What am I growing?
In the back planter, L to R are:
Tomatoes, Courgettes (Green and yellow), Broc, Cauli, Spinach, various lettuces (mostly all eaten now!), Beetroot, Purple Onion and Carrots.

In the front we have L to R:
Pumpkins, Gherkins, Pak Choy, Potatoes, Garlic, Beans (Green and yellow), Watermelon (not doing so well), Capsicum and Corn!

So delish.

Vege-tables

I'm a bit of a green finger really... I love my vege gardens! Being in the flat I am now in I decided to make my vegie garden in a planter box so if need be I could take it with me whenever I left.

My dad has loads of these planter boxes and is selling them for a mere $20 each... so if you need one let me know

Start by putting the planter box in a sunnyish place and filling it with good quality soil.

Then in the soil dig wee holes


Take your plant out of its house...


and gently spilt apart the roots somewhat.


Pop it in the hole and build up the soil around it

This is a courgette plant!

Continue this until all your plants are in


Put the tags in the soil so you remember what each is




And if you have any plants that will grow tall, add stakes in the soil next to them, so they can grow up them



Remember to water them after the sun has gone, if it hasn't rained already.

I will keep you posted on the growth! And blog soon about growing from seed.
