Jack has received a pack of free flower mix seeds today from the Blue Peter campaign to encourage bees in our garden.
I have also ordered some gardening books today for myself (Allotment Month by Month by Alan Buckingham and The Thrifty Gardener: How to Create a Stylish Garden for Next to Nothing by Alys Fowler) and a couple for the children which I am hoping will have projects for us to do to encourage wildlife etc.
Just checked the seed tray with the capsicum in; still no sign of germination after 15 days. I may have to record this one as a failure, I’ll give them another 10 days and then it the compost bin.
Think I might try and swap some of my spare seeds for someone’s fresher capsicums seeds and try again.
Must remember to get some more potting compost.
How do you find all these campaigns for childred? I can't believe I didn't hear about this!
ReplyDeleteTo be honest I was on the hunt for free seeds (I'm a little embarrassed now) I just put 'free seeds' into google, plus I followed links from BBC & Cbeebies
