yeah? i grew mine in pots til they were all really craming for space, then have just repotted them and spread them out with fewer in each pot. we'll see how much bigger i can get em but these were from 2-5cm
My first carrots looked great from the top but were only 1/2 cm long (clay soil), the second lot were curled around (rocks in garden) - hopefully this time I get 'real' carrots!
yay!
Awww, all the ones I harvested yesterday were the same size!
Vanessa, I've only done one bottle of pickles because they are small enough too. However we pick the cucumbers every couple of days and eat them fresh. They taste really good and are essentially just a mini cucumber. When yours grow to about 5-10cm…
Vanessa, my cucumbers look the same but are not pickling ones - think they are Lebanese but can't remember at the moment... do you remember the name of the variety you planted?
OH MAN, thats what ive planted. they are for pickling? I was wondering why they looked ugly. (i thought what i brought and planted were like the normal cuks like in the shops........well the pic looked like the ones in the shop....NOT EVEN after see…
my sister does it more than me, this would have to be my first time - we tried them last night and they are great! mixed with vinegar, dill, garlic, chilli,mustard seeds, you can sit them up to six months
do you grow carrots as well? How long do you leave them before you pick?
yes i believe so - they dont have any seeds in them...

As the storm rolled in
was out in the garden yesterday afternoon. The garlic chives were busting out of the little pot I had them in, so I repotted into a massive one. It is stressful for them to be repotted but we made it and now I have to water and nourish until it grows back up big again. The storm came in just as I was trying to top up the soil it was a nice afternoon.
