    Thanks for the idea of the polystyrene tray. I have an old wooden chest of drawers outside which provides a sheltered environment, so following your example I am trying putting a tray of small plants in them at night and closing it, it is also within a small pvc vertical balcony greenhouse. I think it gives them some protection/microclimate and saves bringing absolutely everything inside the house for things that are not too cold sensitive.

Looking forward to my first gardening season with you. :)

      • Mint can refer to any plant that comes from the genus of plants belonging to the family Lamiaceae including peppermint. Peppermint is a hybrid mint variety of spearmint and watermint.
      • Peppermint extract is made from pure peppermint oil whereas mint extract can be derived from any number of, or combination of, culinary mint plants.

    You have been busy there, Dan! Nothing better than being at the start of the year with all of it ahead of us - whatever this summer turns out to be. I have sown onions (Showmaster), chillies, tomatoes and peppers - all indoors. It is really early for us here, we are about 2 months behind Cardiff in terms of planting. I plant very little directly, only last minute matters to fill unforeseen spaces. We have such a short season that I would have little to show if I didn't do it that way. I have a long list of wildflower plugs to buy as well, for the new plot of land - as if I could cram any more stuff into my house. Always the same this time of year, then a brief gap until harvest and then the same again. I find with the canning that the recipes use large quantities, so I am concentrating on the staples: onion, tomatoes, peppers/ chillies and celery. I don't sow the lates (corn, melons etc) until April, they go out late May/ June.
    Dan, the cold spell is supposed to turn to snow for Weds/ Thurs next week. Some of my space circles hint at cold in May and summer storms - no doubt from the La NIna in addition to GSM and current issues. Last year we saw how weakened the Jet Stream was - I am more concerned about the changes to the ocean conveyors, we need our Gulf Stream influence in our position. So, keep the cover handy for that orange! All the best, Vox.

      @@homegardens7682 Thanks Dan, great recommendation there - I hadn't heard of that particular type of Musa. Strange on internet searches, looking for that has called up a number of exotic/ tropical companies in the UK that a general search does not find. I have also seen the Maurelii that I mentioned. I was really interested in Musa when I watched a German UA-camr who grows them outdoors with great success. This UA-camr is based in Northern Germany, so not a great difference from maybe your conditions in the South East, with us waterlogging from the relentless storms is the nemesis of all plants. I have not yet instructed an architect for the other house, not fully decided on what I will do, but I have better options there for an 'orangery' as such.

    You mentioned leeks will grow to the size of the hole they’re planted in, is that why my leeks are thin and does the onion family all grow like this?

    • @homegardens7682
      @homegardens7682  3 роки тому

      That is a potential reason, also are they growing in nice fertile soil etc. Heavy clay could restrict size. I'm not much of an onion grower so I cant really advise on that one.

    • @voxintenebris6367
      @voxintenebris6367 3 роки тому

      You would normally transplant leeks at just under pencil thickness. I use a trowel handle to push a hole around 6 inches deep into the ground, drop in one leek seedling and fill the hole up with water. The water will cover part of the green growth, but the top of the leek will be proud of the hole. The hole will close gradually due to weather etc, but from the point of planting, the leek is left to it.
      I grow onions from seed , rarely from sets but also from young seedlings. The seeds I start off in a tray of F2 &S compost (the best for all seeds - low nutrient and added sand) , I then move them onto cell trays/ pots to grow on to the same stage as seedlings would be to buy. Onion seedlings are simply planted as normal into the ground and firmed in - just as you would plant cabbage or any other plant. If I have grown them in cells, I manage to get the whole cell out - onion in its compost and transplant that into the ground. ( I don't clean the compost off) Low nutrient compost prevents leggy growth. Multi-purpose is for developed seedlings.
