I really have no idea what came over me, but I have decided to have a go at growing a few bits and bobs. It all started out in Sainsburys with their little tubs for childen to grow strawberries and tomatoes. They’re cute, they’re sweet, and after a little humming and heying, I went for it. The kids were actually quite excited about it all and with serious faces, they all took their turn, and we now have some little seeds in pots waiting to grow before I put them outside.
My boys really did enjoy doing these. Putting in the little pellets, and seeing them grow to fill the pots as they added the water was surprising. I really didn’t think that they would enjoy it at their age. The sticks were duly written on with the date and the type of seed on it. I am just hoping that they are as keen to keep looking after the plants once they begin to come through.
The only problem for me is, that once I start getting into things, I tend to take them to completely over the top levels, so I have been out shopping for more. First in line was a few seeds to add to a new propagator. Sweetcorn, melon, and peas have made their way to teensy little pots that we are watering and checking by the hour for signs of growth.
Whats next for my boys and I? More plantlings, that’s for sure. We had lots of fun sorting, picking and watering the seeds. They are interested in them because they feel responsible for starting them off.
Wish us luck…….
That some of the seeds grow ……………
